Pi user space SPI

I finally had some time to play with a OLED (same one as my I2C one; SSD1306 chip), but this interface was SPI. I wanted to learn more about SPI and write a user space program in C++ that would run on my Raspberry Pi and drive the SPI OLED just like I had done for my I2C OLED. Did some digging on spidev and learned a lot. The commands to the OLED were the same as the I2C so I did not have to re-invent the wheel there, but the communication was the only difference.
