Issue:
Running without `fps` or the equivalent can get poor results
I've noted this before.

For example, if you have a control sending data to an empty animation, if you don't set an fps and the processor runs flat out, the updates to simpixel are extremely intermittent.

Pull request:
Add a default FPS (fix #792)
