This PR fixes power-on behavior when running on batteries and makes the initial button state available.
Currently, power is latched in
board_init(), which can take 3-10s until it runs (depending e.g. on web-workflow). The user has to press the button this long to keep the system running. This PR latches power early, and also saves the state of the shift-register so the user can later query which button was used to turn the system on.For the Inky-Frame 7.3 there is some additional code-cleanup:
board_init()it created three DigitalInOuts locally, but they were never exposed so the pins were not available anymore.
