LCD 16x2 Simulator #78

[Jumitti]

Describe the issue
I often code away from home and I don't necessarily have an LCD screen with me... So I created a 16x2 LCD screen simulator using Tkinter, allowing for easy testing and visualization of LCD displays without physical hardware. This simulator helps in developing and debugging LCD-based projects directly from a computer.
Especially if you don't have your Raspberry and LCD with you.

All you have to do is replace Lcd() and CustomCharacters() with LcdSimulator() and CustomCharactersSimulator(). I've recoded all the (hopefully) useful functions for simulation purposes and kept their names.

I've modified __init__.py to also load drivers/simulator.py which contains everything needed for the emulator.

import drivers

display = drivers.LcdSimulator()
cc = drivers.CustomCharactersSimulator(display)

# Then the rest of your finest feats
