tilhow to rearrange bits

If you have a bit-powered display where the elements don’t align to the bits in the byte, you may want to remap bits from the source byte to the destination byte. Manually writing a bunch of shifts is frustrating, and I found a great tool which writes this code for you!

I just used this to map sprite binary data to Unicode braille patterns. The 8 dots in a braille pattern can map to a byte, but perhaps not in the order you expect.
