The Holtek HT16K33 LED controller is not only used for driving dot-matrix displays, but also for driving segment displays. Document compatible values for the Adafruit 7-segment[1] and 14-segment[2] FeatherWing expansion boards with red displays. According to the schematics, all other Adafruit 7-segment and 14-segment display backpack and FeatherWing expansion boards (including bare boards and boards fitted with displays) are compatible with these two boards. Add a "color" property to support the different color variants.

Document the attached display type in a child node. I.e. specify segment type, number of characters, and wiring. Especially the latter would become really complex, due to the sheer amount of possible wiring combinations. Using this method, you also loose the ability to just connect a display to an i2c bus, and instantiate the device from sysfs, without using DT: echo adafruit,3130 0x70 > /sys/class/i2c/i2c-adapter/.../new_device 2. Do not use the "color" property, but document all Adafruit 7-segment and 14-segment display backpack and FeatherWing expansion boards.
