Description

adafruit_framebuf.py looks like it has some code stubs for 16-bit displays, but there isn't a RGB565Format class implemented.

Research direction

Start in adafruit_framebuf.py and inspect the existing 16-bit display stubs and format-related entry points. Compare their expected behavior with the surrounding frame-buffer implementation, then verify that RGB565 displays are supported and that the class handles the intended pixel format correctly.
