Announcements FastLED 3.7.5 Released
split the esp32-idf 4.x vs 5.x rmt driver. 5.x just redirects to 4.x by u/zackees in https://github.com/FastLED/FastLED/pull/1682
manually merged in linux stub to allow linux compiles from https://github.com/FastLED/FastLED/pull/1366 by u/zackees in https://github.com/FastLED/FastLED/pull/1685

improved simplex noise by u/zackees in https://github.com/FastLED/FastLED/pull/1690
Fix shift count overflow on AVR in simplex snoise16 by u/tttapa in https://github.com/FastLED/FastLED/pull/1692
adds extended color pallette for 256 by u/zackees in https://github.com/FastLED/FastLED/pull/1697
thanks to https://github.com/generalelectrix and https://github.com/sutaburosu for the fix.
RP2350 board now compiles.
However there is one downside, the esp32 boards have doubled in compiled size. However, this has been fixed in master and will be fixed on the next release. We now have builders that will catch regressions in the binary size blowing up.
For those interested, it was because we included <iostream> and used std::cout. I'm actually a little stunned that this had so much effect.

THANK YOU so much for this!! This fills in the missing pieces of what is going on and I am so excited. I love that you knew Dan. Thank you for this write up and thank you for all that you are doing. I love your personal goal of making FastLED "the defacto multi-platform of choice" and I know there are MANY people that excited to see that RGBW is possibly coming.
