47f634300c py: Change makemoduledefs process so it uses output of qstr extraction.
This cleans up the parsing of MP_REGISTER_MODULE() and generation of
genhdr/moduledefs.h so that it uses the same process as compressed error
string messages, using the output of qstr extraction.

This makes sure all MP_REGISTER_MODULE()'s that are part of the build are
correctly picked up.  Previously the extraction would miss some (eg if you
had a mod.c file in the board directory for an stm32 board).

Build speed is more or less unchanged.

Thanks to @stinos for the ports/windows/msvc/genhdr.targets changes.

c2e8a5acd2 windows: Unify project file headers.
The xmlns attribute is required for older msbuild version (e.g. for
VS2015).  Add it where needed, and reorder the attributes so all
files look the same.

cf258c898e windows/msvc: Run qstr preprocessing phase in parallel.
Supported from VS2017 and up, this roughly halves build time.

b326edf68c all: Remove MICROPY_OPT_CACHE_MAP_LOOKUP_IN_BYTECODE.
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.

2a9ea69fa9 windows/msvc: Support freezing modules.
Support freezing modules via manifest.py for consistency with the other
ports.  In essence this comes down to calling makemanifest.py and adding
the resulting .c file to the build.  Note the file with preprocessed qstrs
has been renamed to match what makemanifest.py expects and which is also
the name all other ports use.

b2b21839d3 windows/msvc: Remove unneeded definitions for qstr generation.
These were probably added to detect more qstrs but as long as the
micropython executable itself doesn't use the same build options the qstrs
would be unused anyway.  Furthermore these definitions are for internal use
and get enabled when corresponding MICROPY_EMIT_XXX are defined, in which
case the compiler would warn about symbol redefinitions since they'd be
defined both here and in the source.

cf22f4793c py: Allow registration of modules at their definition.
During make, makemoduledefs.py parses the current builds c files for
MP_REGISTER_MODULE(module_name, obj_module, enabled_define)

These are used to generate a header with the required entries for
"mp_rom_map_elem_t mp_builtin_module_table[]" in py/objmodule.c

3f9d3e120b windows/msvc: Support custom compiler for header generation.
Use overrideable properties instead of hardcoding the use of the
default cl executable used by msvc toolsets. This allows using
arbitrary compiler commands for qstr header generation.
The CLToolExe and CLToolPath properties are used because they are,
even though absent from any official documentation, the de-facto
standard as used by the msvc toolsets themselves.

01dd7804b8 ports: Make new ports/ sub-directory and move all ports there.
This is to keep the top-level directory clean, to make it clear what is
core and what is a port, and to allow the repository to grow with new ports
in a sustainable way.
