ST7735R LVGL live update chart example for PlatformIO

**Important:**In newer versions of PlatformIO, most ESP32 boards will crash with this example unless you create a custom lv_conf.h config file specifying to use internal memory instead of PSRAM. See How to fix ESP32 LVGL crash / reboot in lv_tlsf_create() / lv_mem_init() for instructions how to fix that.

In our previous example ST7735R minimal LVGL chart example for PlatformIO

See Minimal ESP32 PlatformIO TFT display example using Adafruit ST7735 for the recommended hardware configuration.

Using an ESP32 with a 128x160px ST7735R display, this code achieves a ~3Hz update rate. Note that this example can easily be modified to work with other LCD controllers or displays.
