C# Class Netduino.Core.Services.Emulator2

Extension of standard Emulator to provide events for key state changes

The standard emulator and derived classes go through several stages of initialization. However, external classes, like a view model don't get to participate in the "notification" of state changes. Thus it is difficult for a view model to know when it is safe to attach to the emulators LCD changed event.

This class is designed to add events to the standard emulator for the Initialize and Uninitialize states and to simplify registration of GPIO pins and LCD display components
