Add a gamepad module for handling buttons in the background. (#295)

The `GamePad` singleton monitors buttons in the background to make sure a button press is never missed and debouncing happens consistently.

+//|     import gamepad
+//|     import time
+//|
+//|     B_UP = 1 << 0

+//|         digitalio.DigitalInOut(board.D1),
+//|     )
+//|
+//|     y = 0

+//|         buttons = pad.get_pressed()
+//|         if buttons & B_UP:

+//|             print(y)
+//|         elif buttons & B_DOWN:
+//|             y += 1
+//|             print(y)
+//|         time.sleep(0.1)

+
+//| .. class:: GamePad([b1[, b2[, b3[, b4[, b5[, b6[, b7[, b8]]]]]]]])
+//|
+//|     Initializes button scanning routines.
+//|
+//|     The ``b1``-``b8`` parameters are ``DigitalInOut`` objects, which
+//|     immediately get switched to input with a pull-up, and then scanned
+//|     regularly for button presses. The order is the same as the order of
+//|     bits returned by the ``get_pressed`` function. You can re-initialize
+//|     it with different keys, then the new object will replace the previous
+//|     one.
+//|
+//|     The basic feature required here is the ability to poll the keys at
+//|     regular intervals (so that de-bouncing is consistent) and fast enough
+//|     (so that we don't miss short button presses) while at the same time
+//|     letting the user code run normally, call blocking functions and wait
+//|     on delays.
+//|
+//|     They button presses are accumulated, until the ``get_pressed`` method
+//|     is called, at which point the button state is cleared, and the new
+//|     button presses start to be recorded.
