- Added argument to locateOnScreen to accept a list of (x, y, w, h) tuples.
- Automatically blacks out these regions on each screenshot before searching for the image.
- Useful for workflows that need to skip already-processed or known areas when finding multiple instances.
- Also added helper function draw_blackout_regions for consistent blackout logic.
- Added test TestLocateOnScreenSkipRegions.test_locateOnScreen_with_skip_regions:
- Verifies that locateOnScreen correctly respects skip_regions.
- Uses monkey-patched screenshot to consistently return haystack2.png.
- Confirms it finds the slash pattern without blackout, then fails when blackout is applied.
