Add min and max_intensity feature back to Pulse animation

[rdagger]

After upgrading to the latest Circuit Python Bundle (circuitpython-bundle-5.x-mpy-20200621), I'm getting the following error with the adafruit_led_animation library on the Feather nRF52840 Express:
File "code.py", line 7, in TypeError: 'module' object is not callable
Here is a sample program to reproduce the error:

from adafruit_led_animation.animation import Pulse, Solid
import adafruit_led_animation.color as color
from neopixel import NeoPixel
from time import sleep
from board import NEOPIXEL
pixel = NeoPixel(NEOPIXEL, 1)
solid = Solid(pixel, color.GREEN)  # THIS LINE THROWS THE ERROR
solid.animate()  
sleep(4)

The code works with circuitpython-bundle-5.x-mpy-20200516
The code stops working with circuitpython-bundle-5.x-mpy-20200518

I'm running CircuitPython 5.4.0-beta.1-43-g1504d9005 on 2020-06-22; on Feather nRF52840 Express.

Looks like it was 2.0.0 that was included. The notes are here: https://github.com/adafruit/Adafruit_CircuitPython_LED_Animation/releases/2.0.0

Here is an example change: cbfa114#diff-879798843e31cea6b37d583453edd26f

It looks like you may need to modify the first import for another level of abstraction.

Thanks that worked! Unfortunately, it looks like the min_intensity and max_intensity parameters have been removed from the Pulse animation. Any chance of getting those back? It really helps to dial in a smooth LED pulse.

class Pulse(Animation):
    """
    Pulse all pixels a single color.
    :param pixel_object: The initialised LED object.
    :param int speed: Animation refresh rate in seconds, e.g. ``0.1``.
    :param color: Animation color in ``(r, g, b)`` tuple, or ``0x000000`` hex format.
    :param period: Period to pulse the LEDs over.  Default 5.
    :param max_intensity: The maximum intensity to pulse, between 0 and 1.0.  Default 1.
    :param min_intensity: The minimum intensity to pulse, between 0 and 1.0.  Default 0.
    """


class Pulse(Animation):
    """
    Pulse all pixels a single color.
    :param pixel_object: The initialised LED object.
    :param float speed: Animation refresh rate in seconds, e.g. ``0.1``.
    :param color: Animation color in ``(r, g, b)`` tuple, or ``0x000000`` hex format.
    :param period: Period to pulse the LEDs over.  Default 5.
    """

Also the min_intensity and max_intensity parameters are still present in the SparklePulse animation but don't appear to be wired up.

Good catch on SparklePulse.

Restoring min/max intensity shouldn't be difficult.

With regards to the import issue, I'd love to add backward compatibility for imports, but will need to test see how that affects memory use.
