This 2-in-1 PR started with the goal of support the Bangle.js 2
smartwatch with *no USB*.
* Adds "secure" DFU build support with a committed private key.
* Adds 3-bit color support with one dummy bit for the JDI memory display
* Allows nrf boards to have a board_background_task() run in RUN_BACKGROUND_TASK.
This is needed because the Bangle.js 2 uses the watchdog to reset.
* Renamed port_background_task() to port_background_tick() to indicate it
runs on tick, not RUN_BACKGROUND_TASK.
* Marks serial connected when the display terminal is inited. This means
that safe mode messages show up on the display.
ACep, 7-color epaper displays also pack 3 bits in 4. So, I added that
support as well.
* Adds 3-bit ACeP color support for 7-color e-paper displays. (Not
watch related but similar due to color depth.)
* Allows a refresh sequence instead of a single int command. The 7" ACeP
display requires a data byte for refresh.
* Adds optional delay after resetting the display. The ACeP displays
need this. (Probably to load LUTs from flash.)
* Adds a cleaning phase for ACeP displays before the real refresh.
For both:
* Add dither support to Palette.
* Palette no longer converts colors when set. Instead, it caches
converted colors at each index.
* ColorConverter now caches the last converted color. It should make
conversions faster for repeated colors (not dithering.)
* write any partial message
* instead of "..." show a sensible (translatable) message
This does slightly lower the amount of data that can be printed,
and makes the exact amount dependent on the language. However, if boot.py
intentionally needs to produce larger amounts of output, it can
deliberately mount the filesystem in RW mode and perform any writes needed.
In that case it's up to the boot.py to choose an appropriate way to
limit the number of writes if needed for the application.
Now, open wifi works on Pico W, so this closes#7438.
For the web workflow it's now OK to either
* specify an empty password string (as before)
* not have the CIRCUITPY_WIFI_PASSWORD key at all (new functionality)
This may help address #7409 if the underlying cause is the deterministic
volume ID. However, not all boards have working urandom (samd21
at least does not) so a couple of fallbacks are attempted when it fails.
I verified that on a pico_w, each `storage.erase_filesystem()` gives
a distinct 32-bit volume ID (pico_w's urandom can never fail)
* Set nonblock on all accepted sockets. Not just ones for user code.
* Close an open websocket if another is accepted.
* Set debug level to INFO rather than DEBUG because DEBUG crashes
on ESP32-S3 USB OTG.
When the USB serial buffer is full, the Ctrl-C code to send
KeyboardInterrupt can't be sent, which creates a problem if you've
pasted code or otherwise filled the buffer and need to recover.
A similar problem affects advanced UIs that interact with CircuitPython
and may send characters when they're unexpected, such as mu when it
tries to move the cursor based on the user clicking on the screen.
The main way forward seems to be to use some kind of message that can
still reach CircuitPython when its internal serial recieve buffer is full.
RS232 defines a "break" signal, in which the transmitting device holds its
data line in the "space" state for many entire character times. This still
exists in the world of USB serial.
This does work, sort of, except that your host computer software will need
to properly handle blocking serial writes; tio can send a break with
the **ctrl-c b** sequence, but this only works if it hasn't yet written
too much data, so it doesn't actually help in most situations :-/
It doesn't need never reset because the status LED is only active
when user code isn't.
This also fixes PWM never reset on espressif so that deinit will
undo it.
Fixes#6223
Internally this is done with a MOVE HTTP verb. It is modeled after
WebDAV MOVE but not exact to keep the Destination header shorter
and have more consistent response codes.
Fixes#6647
This allows the web workflow send code to yield briefly when
waiting for more room to send in a socket. Waiting for an "interrupt"
could wait forever because the select task only waits for read and
error. Adding wait on write is tricky because much of the time we
don't care if the sockets are ready to write. Using yield avoids
this trickiness.
We may have set retries to 0 to enforce a timeout but the connect
succeeded. When it succeeds, we want to allow retries later in
case we lose signal briefly. (The callback will do this too but
the connect function will override it after.)
Also, remove extra code from websocket that is leftover from
debugging.
* Tweak scroll area position so last line is complete and top is
under the title bar.
* Pick Blinka size based on the font to minimize unused space in
title bar. Related to #2791
* Update the title bar after terminal is started. Fixes#6078Fixes#6668
.. the primary user of which will be the camera, since the framebuffers
must be allocated via esp-idf allocation function and never from the
gc heap.
A board can have a default value, and the value can also be set in the
/.env file using the key CIRCUITPY_RESERVED_PSRAM with the value being
the reserved size in bytes.

added remote css URL to pull additional CSS from the circuitpython.org site (apologies for the black background - this is temporary, I'll send an update to the CP.org css *very* shortly that will undo this)
* Fixes#6221 - C3 hang on `import wifi`. Enabling the WiFi PHY was
disabling USB. Now boards that use it set CONFIG_ESP_PHY_ENABLE_USB
explicitly.
* Fixes#6655 - Allows pasting into the web serial page. Fixes reading
more than 0xf bytes at a time.
* Fixes#6653 - Fixes web socket encoding of payloads >125 bytes. Can
happen when printing a long string.
* Fixes C3 responsiveness when waiting for key to enter REPL. (It
now correctly stops sleeping.)
* Disables title bar updates when in raw REPL. Related to #6548.
* Adds version to title bar.
1. Run the socket select task at the same priority as CP. This is
needed because it queues up the background work. Without it, CP
needed to sleep to let the lower priority task go.
2. Close the active socket on disconnect. This prevents looping
over a disconnected but not closed socket.
Fixes#6610. Fixes#6613
