Screen::handleSetOff()
for E-Ink displays

Platform

Description
After several minutes at idle, log gets message
[PowerFSM] Turning off screen
.After this point, the E-Ink display does not receive any updates until user presses a button to wake the device.
Because the E-Ink display image persists, even after
Screen::handleSetOff()
runs, it is not immediately clear that display updates have suspended.It may be worth considering either:
Allowing the E-Ink display to remain active
Unlike traditional displays, there is no considerable standby power consumption.
Moving to a standby screen before "turning off screen"
This would make it clear to the user that updates are suspended, and that a button press is required to display current info.
