What's the meaning of "reversed"?
During the last few days, I've been balancing between (a) "reverse
video" and (b) "reverse bit order", but none of them seems to be true.

(a) The code maps 0-127 to 0 and 8-255 to 1, which just reduces from
256 to 2 grayscale levels, without inversion. The result is also
white-on-black on my ssd130x OLED.
(b) On little-endian, the CFB drawops use little-endian bit order,
which is what ends up in "byte" in the code below.
