3c658a4e75 py: Fix bug where GC collected native/viper/asm function data.
Because (for Thumb) a function pointer has the LSB set, pointers to
dynamic functions in RAM (eg native, viper or asm functions) were not
being traced by the GC.  This patch is a comprehensive fix for this.

Addresses issue #820.

2ac4af6946 py: Allow viper to have type annotations.
Viper functions can now be annotated with the type of their arguments
and return value.  Eg:

@micropython.viper
def f(x:int) -> int:
    return x + 1

915197a8f9 py: Remove emit_glue init and deinit. Needed only for debugging.
Debugging output for emit_glue now simplified so that the init and
deinit functions are no longer needed.

ccc85ea0da py: Combine native emitters to 1 glue function; distinguish viper.
This patch simplifies the glue between native emitter and runtime,
and handles viper code like inline assember: return values are
converted to Python objects.

Fixes issue #531.

3417bc2f25 py: Rename byte_code to bytecode everywhere.
bytecode is the more widely used.  See issue #590.

04b9147e15 Add license header to (almost) all files.
Blanket wide to all .c and .h files.  Some files originating from ST are
difficult to deal with (license wise) so it was left out of those.

Also merged modpyb.h, modos.h, modstm.h and modtime.h in stmhal/.

2827d62e8b py: Implement keyword-only args.
Implements 'def f(*, a)' and 'def f(*a, b)', but not default
keyword-only args, eg 'def f(*, a=1)'.

Partially addresses issue #524.

3558f62fb5 py: Making closures now passes pointer to stack, not a tuple for vars.
Closed over variables are now passed on the stack, instead of creating a
tuple and passing that.  This way memory for the closed over variables
can be allocated within the closure object itself.  See issue #510 for
background.

df8127a17e py: Remove unique_codes from emitglue.c. Replace with pointers.
Attempt to address issue #386.  unique_code_id's have been removed and
replaced with a pointer to the "raw code" information.  This pointer is
stored in the actual byte code (aligned, so the GC can trace it), so
that raw code (ie byte code, native code and inline assembler) is kept
only for as long as it is needed.  In memory it's now like a tree: the
outer module's byte code points directly to its children's raw code.  So
when the outer code gets freed, if there are no remaining functions that
need the raw code, then the children's code gets freed as well.

This is pretty much like CPython does it, except that CPython stores
indexes in the byte code rather than machine pointers.  These indices
index the per-function constant table in order to find the relevant
code.

d1e443d0bc py: Free unique_code slot for outer module.
Partly (very partly!) addresses issue #386.  Most importantly, at the
REPL command line, each invocation does not now lead to increased memory
usage (unless you define a function/lambda).
