At least some panels using the LSB register are not happy with the
unconditional increase of the command buffer to 3 bytes.

With the BOE NE14QDM in my Dell Latitude 7455, the recent patches for
luminance based brightness have introduced a regression: the brightness
range stopped being contiguous and became nonsensical (it probably was
interpreting the last 2 bytes of the buffer and not the first 2).

Change from using a fixed sizeof() to a length variable that's only
set to 3 when luminance is used. Let's leave the default as 2 even for
the single-byte version, since that's how it worked before.
