Scott Lawson b10a7d0396 Added experimental support for Raspberry Pi devices
This commit adds support for the Raspberry Pi, which allows users to
create a completely standalone music visualization system. The Raspberry
Pi should be connected directly to a ws2812b LED strip. A PWM-capable
GPIO pin should be connected to the data line of the LED strip. A USB
audio input device should be connected to one of the Raspberry Pi's USB
ports.

It is recommended that the GUI and FPS output be disabled when running
the visualization on the Raspberry Pi. These features can degrade
performance on the already computationally limited Raspberry Pi.
