Description

It would be very useful to be able to set and get real voltages.
These can be calculated internally knowing the voltage reference source, vdd voltage if used for reference, and gain.

I have started adding these in this [branch](https://github.com/Teslafly/Adafruit_CircuitPython_MCP4728/tree/add_direct_voltage_set-read) and intend to close this issue with a pull request from that branch.

Research direction

Start from the add_direct_voltage_set-read branch linked in the issue and review how voltage reference source, VDD reference voltage, and gain are used. Done means the library can set and get real voltages directly using those values.
