I tried to do bulk writes for the command, but the problem is that the
command stream has to be as follow (i.e: SSD130X_SET_COL_RANGE command):

SSD130X_COMMAND
SSD130X_SET_COL_RANGE
SSD130X_COMMAND
col_start
SSD130X_COMMAND
col_end

That is, a SSD130X_COMMAND has to be writtn for each command and command
option. This means that you need to either construct a command stream in
the ssd130x_write_cmd() function or pass multiple SSD130X_COMMAND as
variadic arguments.

Both cases lead to a less elegant implementation than just having a count
parameter in ssd130x_write_cmd() and doing multiple writes as it is done
in the current implementation.

After all, these are only for commands that are done once to setup the
device. The SSD130X_DATA writes that are to update the display pixels are
already done in bulk, which are more important to do it efficiently.
