Add support for automatic dimming to adjust for changing room brightness. Requires a minor hardware modification described in ReadMe.txt .

This software change can be safely merged since it is disabled by default, and will have no effect unless AUTO_DIMMING_ENABLED is set to true in config.h

Closes #325

This is an interesting idea. The PR is well done. But I question if we want to add code that requires a hardware modification. @brett-dot-tech I think this one is clearly in your court to give direction on.
