A sequence of neopixels.
:param ~microcontroller.Pin data0: The first of 8 data registers, in GPIO order
:param int n: The total number of neopixels. Must be a multiple of the number of strands.
:param int num_strands: The number of neopixels in each strand.
:param int bpp: Bytes per pixel. 3 for RGB and 4 for RGBW pixels.
:param float brightness: Brightness of the pixels between 0.0 and 1.0 where 1.0 is full
brightness
:param bool auto_write: True if the neopixels should immediately change when set. If False,
`show` must be called explicitly.
:param str pixel_order: Set the pixel color channel order. GRBW is set by default.
Example for Raspberry Pi Pico:
.. code-block:: python
pixels = scorpio.NeoPIO(board.GP0, board.GP1, board.GP2, 8*30, auto_write=False)
pixels.fill(0xff0000)
pixels.show()
.. py:method:: NeoPIO.show()
Shows the new colors on the pixels themselves if they haven't already
been autowritten.
The colors may or may not be showing after this function returns because
it may be done asynchronously.
.. py:method:: NeoPIO.fill(color)
Colors all pixels the given ***color***.
.. py:attribute:: brightness
Overall brightness of the pixel (0 to 1.0)
