Description

Using `Debouncer` for the encoder button requires polling when doing things like double-click detection, etc. It could be switched to a separate `keypad.Keys()`. Might be a little tricky to preserve the current API.

Some early related discussion in https://github.com/adafruit/Adafruit_CircuitPython_MacroPad/issues/2.

Research direction

Start by tracing the current encoder-button Debouncer usage and reading the related discussion in issue #2, then compare it with the keypad.Keys() API. Done means the button supports polling for behaviors such as double-click detection while preserving the current API.
