Detailed Description

WS2816 encoder - converts 16-bit RGB pixels to dual 8-bit RGB format.

The WS2816 is a high-definition LED chipset that uses 16-bit color depth. This encoder converts each 16-bit RGB pixel into two 8-bit RGB pixels for transmission via standard WS2812-compatible controllers.

Protocol:

Input: 16-bit RGB (3x 16-bit values = 48 bits per LED)
Output: Dual 8-bit RGB (2x 24-bit CRGB = 48 bits per LED)
Each 16-bit channel is split: high byte → first CRGB, low byte → second CRGB
Channel layout: R_hi, R_lo, G_hi → first CRGB; G_lo, B_hi, B_lo → second CRGB

Note: This encoder produces 2x CRGB output for each input pixel
