Register Dump

Next step was to dump all registers (0x00 thru 0x40) of the SX1276/7/8/9 device

I also started to refactor the code (extracting the Read functionality and format the output in both hexadecimal and binary (convert.ToString in base2 + padleft) to make comparison of register values with the datasheet easier.

The device was not in LoRa mode (Bit 7 of RegOpMode 0x01) so the next step was to read and write registers so I could change its configuration.
