Warning: You might need a level shifter (that supports i2c) between the SCL/SDA connections on the MCP chip / backpack and the Raspberry Pi. Or you might damage the Pi and possibly any other 3.3V i2c devices connected on the i2c bus. Or cause reliability issues. The SCL/SDA are rated 0.7*VDD on the MCP23008, so it needs 3.5V on the SCL/SDA when 5V is applied to drive the LCD. The MCP23008 and MCP23017 needs to be connected exactly the same way as the backpack. For complete schematics see the adafruit page at: https://learn.adafruit.com/i2c-spi-lcd-backpack/ 4-bit operation. I2C only supported.
