    added individual size particle rendering plus some fixes

    - advanced particles can now be rendered to individual sizes. It is computationally intensive but it works well for up to 15 very large particles and more smaller ones
    - added collision handling for individual sizes (walls and collisions)
    - fixed bugs in particlebox
    - fixed fire not transitioning properly (flickering) when frame skip is active
    - removed 'wraparound' function as it can easily be done by casting to an unsigned and then modulo
    - fixed ballpit particles wandering left and right very fast if wrapX is set

commit dc5c58e
Author: Damian Schneider <[email protected]>
Date:   Sat Feb 10 18:25:37 2024 +0100

    Fixed some bugs in particle system, runs much smoother now

    also tweaked some of the FX

commit 7c49f88
Author: Damian Schneider <[email protected]>
Date:   Sat Feb 10 13:32:23 2024 +0100

    removed option for fastcolor add

    it made very little difference in performance, but for ESP8266 it may matter so it is set permanently there. graphically the difference is also very small (sometimes a particle gets brighter or less saturated)

commit da94d31
Author: Damian Schneider <[email protected]>
Date:   Sat Feb 10 11:32:07 2024 +0100

    Improved collision handling (faster, less oscillations), changed variables to 32bit for faster calculation

    32bit variables are faster on ESP32, so use them whenever a variable is used a lot, it saves one instruction per access.

commit 8fe044e
Author: Damian Schneider <[email protected]>
Date:   Sat Feb 10 08:14:34 2024 +0100

    added fix for piling oscillations

    untested, need to verify it works

commit f1ffbe0
Author: Damian Schneider <[email protected]>
Date:   Sat Feb 10 07:35:45 2024 +0100

    improved collision efficiency

    improved efficiency for stackup (pushback), added code to correctly determine direction if particles meed (probably overkill but now its there)

commit 18c79ce
Author: Damian Schneider <[email protected]>
Date:   Thu Feb 8 21:19:30 2024 +0100

    at the expense of more ram usage, animations now have more options for color control (already used in fireworks now)

    bugfixes, attracot now works

    still unknown, why more than 256 particles are needed in memory allocation to not make it crash, but it works for now

    particle attractor animation does not work, somthing wrong with pointer allocation, it worked with static variables

commit 538ffdb
Author: Damian Schneider <[email protected]>
Date:   Sat Feb 3 10:45:34 2024 +0100

    Adding Particle System functions

    Basic Particle system defining particle structs, some emitters and particle to LED rendering

- cleanup / reformatting
- fixed volcano movement
- small bugfix for ESP32 (random() does not work, using random16() )

…obs and Spray

center GEQ is a mix between the PS equalizer and vortex, tuned for AR. some more tuning may be needed, it can probably be extended and improved a little.

- fixed bug in center GEQ
- added '2D washing machine' mode for particle box
- improved color-change rate in ghostrider
- added AR to attractor (experimental, may remove again)

**2D FX candidates for replacement**
- Fireworks 1D -> PS Fireworks (not a 1:1 replacement but similar)
- Ghost Rider -> PS Ghost Rider
- Blobs -> PS Blobs
- Fire 2012 -> PS Fire (note: there is no 1D replacement yet)
- Rain - 2D -> PS Ballpit, slow setting, no floor (very similar except dots are not fading)

**1D FX candidates for replacement**
- Bouncing Balls -> PS bouncing balls
- Rolling Balls -> PS bouncing balls with 'Rolling' enabled
- Dancing Shadows -> PS Dancing Shadows
- Drip -> PS DripDrop
- Fireworks 1D -> PS Fireworks 1D
- Fireworks Starburst -> PS Starburst
- Lighthouse -> PS Chase with 'Color by position', lowest density
- Popcorn -> PS 1D Spray with disabled bounce
- Rain: PS DriopDrop, 'Rain' check enabled, no splash, no blur, no gravity
- Solid Glitter -> PS Sparkler (not worth disabling, only a few bytes)

Some Notes:
- Glitter & Sparkle-> could be replaced with PS Sparkler with overlay OR with an additional FX that draws the background first, maybe not possible on ESP8266
- Juggle could be replaced but will not save much (but would add more options)
- Pride 2015 could be replaced by adding a 'pride' checkmark to PS Chase, woud save about 1kB
- Colorwaves -> could be replaced with PS Chase with additional color setting for hue change, similar to pride. Would save another 1kB
- Theater and Theater rainbow could be dropped -> PS Chase but it will not save much
- Chase 2 & Chase 3 -> PS Chase (width can not be set as high as originals), share a function with Theater, so all have to be disabled (would save about 600 bytes)
- 2D handling of some of the 1D replacements will be lost (like drip), I did not check all current FX in 2D
- Freqmap, Freqwave and Freqmatrix (2.2kB total) could be replaced with a single FX using the PS, would save about 1kB
- Blurring&Overlay only works if global buffer is enabled
- All PS effects are frame-time based, there may be significant speed differences to the original effects if they use timers (and if FPS are low)

Use these #defines to enable/disable PS or FX at compile time:
WLED_DISABLE_PARTICLESYSTEM2D
WLED_DISABLE_PARTICLESYSTEM1D
DISABLE_2D_PS_REPLACEMENTS
DISABLE_1D_PS_REPLACEMENTS

- PS Chase now has two more options to replace color waves and pride (work in progress, about 95% finished)
- PS Bouncing Balls now has larger particle size rendering option added (plus some improvements)
- some cleanup
