This commit removes all parts of code associated with the existing
MICROPY_OPT_CACHE_MAP_LOOKUP_IN_BYTECODE optimisation option, including the
-mcache-lookup-bc option to mpy-cross.
This feature originally provided a significant performance boost for Unix,
but wasn't able to be enabled for MCU targets (due to frozen bytecode), and
added significant extra complexity to generating and distributing .mpy
files.
The equivalent performance gain is now provided by the combination of
MICROPY_OPT_LOAD_ATTR_FAST_PATH and MICROPY_OPT_MAP_LOOKUP_CACHE (which has
been enabled on the unix port in the previous commit).
It's hard to provide precise performance numbers, but tests have been run
on a wide variety of architectures (x86-64, ARM Cortex, Aarch64, RISC-V,
xtensa) and they all generally agree on the qualitative improvements seen
by the combination of MICROPY_OPT_LOAD_ATTR_FAST_PATH and
MICROPY_OPT_MAP_LOOKUP_CACHE.
For example, on a "quiet" Linux x64 environment (i3-5010U @ 2.10GHz) the
change from CACHE_MAP_LOOKUP_IN_BYTECODE, to LOAD_ATTR_FAST_PATH combined
with MAP_LOOKUP_CACHE is:

This shows that the new optimisations are at least as good as the existing
inline-bytecode-caching, and are sometimes much better (because the new
ones apply caching to a wider variety of map lookups).
The new optimisations can also benefit code generated by the native
emitter, because they apply to the runtime rather than the generated code.
The improvement for the native emitter when LOAD_ATTR_FAST_PATH and
MAP_LOOKUP_CACHE are enabled is (same Linux environment as above):

In summary, compared to MICROPY_OPT_CACHE_MAP_LOOKUP_IN_BYTECODE, the new
MICROPY_OPT_LOAD_ATTR_FAST_PATH and MICROPY_OPT_MAP_LOOKUP_CACHE options:
- are simpler;
- take less code size;
- are faster (generally);
- work with code generated by the native emitter;
- can be used on embedded targets with a small and constant RAM overhead;
- allow the same .mpy bytecode to run on all targets.
See #7680 for further discussion. And see also #7653 for a discussion
about simplifying mpy-cross options.

The existing inline bytecode caching optimisation, selected by
MICROPY_OPT_CACHE_MAP_LOOKUP_IN_BYTECODE, reserves an extra byte in the
bytecode after certain opcodes, which at runtime stores a map index of the
likely location of this field when looking up the qstr. This scheme is
incompatible with bytecode-in-ROM, and doesn't work with native generated
code. It also stores bytecode in .mpy files which is of a different format
to when the feature is disabled, making generation of .mpy files more
complex.
This commit provides an alternative optimisation via an approach that adds
a global cache for map offsets, then all mp_map_lookup operations use it.
It's less precise than bytecode caching, but allows the cache to be
independent and external to the bytecode that is executing. It also works
for the native emitter and adds a similar performance boost on top of the
gain already provided by the native emitter.

When the LOAD_ATTR opcode is executed there are quite a few different cases
that have to be handled, but the common case is accessing a member on an
instance type. Typically, built-in types provide methods which is why this
is common.
Fortunately, for this specific case, if the member is found in the member
map then there's no further processing.
This optimisation does a relatively cheap check (type is instance) and then
forwards directly to the member map lookup, falling back to the regular
path if necessary.

This is the beginning of a set of changes to simplify enabling/disabling
features. The goals are:
- Remove redundancy from mpconfigport.h (never set a value to the default
-- make it clear exactly what's being enabled).
- Improve consistency between ports. All "similar" ports (i.e. approx same
flash size) should get the same features.
- Simplify mpconfigport.h -- just get default/sensible options for the size
of the port.
- Make it easy for defining constrained boards (e.g. STM32F0/L0), they can
just set a lower level.
This commit makes a step towards this and defines the "core" level as the
current default feature set, and a "minimal" level to turn off everything.
And a few placeholder levels are added for where the other ports will
roughly land.
This is a no-op change for all ports.

This commit simplifies and optimises the parse tree in-memory
representation of lists of expressions, for tuples and lists, and when
tuples are used on the left-hand-side of assignments and within del
statements. This reduces memory usage of the parse tree when such code is
compiled, and also reduces the size of the compiler.
For example, (1,) was previously the following parse tree:
expr_stmt(5) (n=2)
atom_paren(45) (n=1)
testlist_comp(146) (n=2)
int(1)
testlist_comp_3b(149) (n=1)
NULL
NULL
and with this commit is now:
expr_stmt(5) (n=2)
atom_paren(45) (n=1)
testlist_comp(146) (n=1)
int(1)
NULL
Similarly, (1, 2, 3) was previously:
expr_stmt(5) (n=2)
atom_paren(45) (n=1)
testlist_comp(146) (n=2)
int(1)
testlist_comp_3c(150) (n=2)
int(2)
int(3)
NULL
and is now:
expr_stmt(5) (n=2)
atom_paren(45) (n=1)
testlist_comp(146) (n=3)
int(1)
int(2)
int(3)

This commit refactors machine.PWM and creates extmod/machine_pwm.c. The
esp8266, esp32 and rp2 ports all use this and provide implementations of
the required PWM functionality. This helps to reduce code duplication and
keep the same Python API across ports.
This commit does not make any functional changes.

This implements (most of) the PEP-498 spec for f-strings and is based on
https://github.com/micropython/micropython/pull/4998 by @klardotsh.
It is implemented in the lexer as a syntax translation to `str.format`:
f"{a}" --> "{}".format(a)
It also supports:
f"{a=}" --> "a={}".format(a)
This is done by extracting the arguments into a temporary vstr buffer,
then after the string has been tokenized, the lexer input queue is saved
and the contents of the temporary vstr buffer are injected into the lexer
instead.
There are four main limitations:
- raw f-strings (`fr` or `rf` prefixes) are not supported and will raise
`SyntaxError: raw f-strings are not supported`.
- literal concatenation of f-strings with adjacent strings will fail
"{}" f"{a}" --> "{}{}".format(a) (str.format will incorrectly use
the braces from the non-f-string)
f"{a}" f"{a}" --> "{}".format(a) "{}".format(a) (cannot concatenate)
- PEP-498 requires the full parser to understand the interpolated
argument, however because this entirely runs in the lexer it cannot
resolve nested braces in expressions like
f"{'}'}"
- The !r, !s, and !a conversions are not supported.
Includes tests and cpydiffs.

Commit 4173950658 removed automatic building
of mpy-cross, which rebuilt it whenever any of its dependent source files
changed.
But needing to build mpy-cross, and not knowing how, is a frequent issue.
This commit aims to help by automatically building mpy-cross only if it
doesn't exist. For Makefiles it uses an order-only prerequisite, while
for CMake it uses a custom command.
If MICROPY_MPYCROSS (which is what makemanifest.py uses to locate the
mpy-cross executable) is defined in the environment then automatic build
will not be attempted, allowing a way to prevent this auto-build if needed.
Thanks to Trammell Hudson aka @osresearch for the original idea; see #5760.

Optionally enabled via MICROPY_PY_UJSON_SEPARATORS. Enabled by default.
For dump, make sure mp_get_stream_raise is called after
mod_ujson_separators since CPython does it in this order (if both
separators and stream are invalid, separators will raise an exception
first).

Previously a subclass of a type that didn't implement unary_op, or didn't
handle MP_UNARY_OP_BOOL, would raise TypeError on bool conversion.
Fixes#5677.
This adds #if MICROPY_PY_USELECT_SELECT around the uselect.select()
function. According to the docs, this function is only for CPython
compatibility and should not normally be used. So we can disable it
and save a few bytes of flash space where possible.

The MP_OBJ_STOP_ITERATION optimisation is a shortcut for creating a
StopIteration() exception object, and means that heap memory does not need
to be allocated for the exception (in cases where it can be used). This
commit allows this optimised object to take an optional argument (before,
it could only have no argument).
The commit also adds some new tests to cover corner cases with
StopIteration and generators that previously did not work.

Only include .c and .cpp files explicitly in the list of files passed to
the preprocessor for QSTR extraction. All relevant .h files will be
included in this process by "#include" from the .c(pp) files. In
particular for moduledefs.h, this is included by py/objmodule.c (and
doesn't actually contain any extractable MP_QSTR_xxx, but rather defines
macros with MP_QSTR_xxx's in them which are then part of py/objmodule.c).
The main reason for this change is to simplify the preprocessing step on
the javascript port, which tries to compile .h files as C++ precompiled
headers if they are passed with -E to clang.

Testing was done on an amd64 Debian Buster system using gcc-8.3 and these

The introduced TASK_PAIRHEAP macro's conditional (x ? &x->i : NULL)
assembles (under amd64 gcc 8.3 -Os) to the same as &x->i, since i is the
initial field of the struct. However, for the purposes of undefined

This introduces a new macro to get the main thread and uses it to ensure
that asynchronous exceptions such as KeyboardInterrupt (CTRL+C) are only
scheduled on the main thread. This is more deterministic than being

allow signal handlers to run on the main thread.

Prior to this commit, cache flushing for ARM native code was done only in
the assembler code asm_thumb_end_pass()/asm_arm_end_pass(), at the last
pass of the assembler. But this misses flushing the cache when loading
native code from an .mpy file, ie in persistentcode.c.
The change here makes sure the cache is always flushed/cleaned/invalidated
when assigning native code on ARM architectures.
This problem was found running tests/micropython/import_mpy_native_gc.py on
the mimxrt port.
