[Feature request] add driver for HI8561 (a.k.a. JD9365TG) touch sensor component

[lyusupov]

LilyGO T-Display-P4 comes with either

1. HI8561 (a.k.a. JD9365TG) TFT display driver + touch sensor combo or
2. RM69A10 AMOLED display driver + GT9895 touch sensor

GT9895 touch sensor is already supported by SensorLib , thank you!
It could make sense to add support for HI8561 touch sensor component into SensorLib as well.

Both HI8561 and GT9895 drivers are a part of https://github.com/Llgok/cpp_bus_driver library
However, the cpp_bus_driver is focused on ESP-IDF and it gives me numerous namespace collision issues when I try to build it with Arduino Core for ESP32.

That's why it is wise to support HI8561 TP in the SensorLib ecosystem - it is a lot more Arduino friendly.

P.S. this is an example of application built with Arduino Core ESP32 that runs on LilyGO T-Display-P4 TFT product.
The display works fine! Unfortunately, the touch sensor is inactive.

Hi Linar, you can see that I've made significant changes to SensorLib recently. I'll address your request later. I'm starting my vacation after today, so I'll probably finish it after my vacation.

Hi Lewis!

I'm starting my vacation after today, so I'll probably finish it after my vacation.

Sure. There is no rush. Take a look at it when able...
The product version with AMOLED is expected to be delivered next week - I plan to use it together with your SensorLib GT9895 device driver that already exists.

Wish you to have a happy vacation!
