Research direction

The issue requests adding a screenshot feature to pgzero, similar to Pygame's ability. Investigate the pgzero source code to understand how the game screen is rendered and managed. Look at the main loop or screen module to see how to access the current frame's buffer. Consider using Pygame's `image.save()` or similar to capture the screen surface. A good starting point is to examine the existing `screen` object and how it draws. The implementation should be a simple function that saves the current display to a file. Check if there are any existing utilities or discussions in the comments that hint at a preferred approach.
