We have upgraded Pylint checks to use the latest version of Pylint and implemented usage of Black Python formatting. This does not change the functionality of the code - it is designed to bring it up to current standards and make it more readable.

* Remove pinned Pylint version number from build.yml file
* Synced `.pylintrc` file to match Adafruit standard
* Ran upgraded Pylint and applied any changes or new disables necessary
* Ran Black formatter and allowed application of changes across entire repo

For more information on using Pylint and Black on your code, check out [this guide on working with Pylint and Black](https://learn.adafruit.com/improve-your-code-with-pylint)

**REMEMBER - 2.0.0 was a BREAKING CHANGE.** Import is no longer the same as pre-2.0.0, and the library no longer requires instantiation. It is now:

from adafruit_pybadger import pybadger

**Update: show() renamed to show_custom_badge**

**2.0.1 adds a custom badge feature!** You can now display lines of text over a color-block or image background, each of a different color, scale, and font. You also have the option to left justify the font. Examples for CLUE and PyBadge/PyGamer are in the examples folder.

New features are:
* `badge_background` creates a customisable color-block badge background
* `image_background` allows you to specify a compatible bitmap for the background
* `badge_line` allows you to create a line of text to display
* `show_custom_badge()` displays your badge. Required for badge to display.
