Whenever there is more than one argument, delegate the operation to
namedtuple_make_new. This allows other circuitpython-compatible
idioms, like with keywords
time.struct_time(tm_year=2000, tm_mon=1, tm_mday=1, tm_hour=0,
tm_min=0, tm_sec=14, tm_wday=5, tm_yday=5, tm_isdst=-1)
with 9 positional arguments, etc.
The only vaguely plausible CPython behavior still not permitted in
CircuitPython that I found is constructing a timetuple from a length-9
list, a la
time.struct_time(list(time.localtime())
Even better, by getting rid of an error message, the build shrinks a
tiny bit.
This doesn't cover ALL the cases that CPython permits for construction
of a struct_time, but it at least makes constructing from any namedtuple
work.
Closes: #2326
(or deinitialized, for those of us on this side of the pond)
Otherwise, a sequence like
```
audio = audiobusio.I2SOut(bit_clock=board.D6, word_select=board.D9, data=board.D10)
sine_wave_sample = audiocore.RawSample(sine_wave)
audio.play(sine_wave_sample, loop=True)
del audio
```
could free the memory associated with audio without stopping the
related background task. Later, when fresh objects are allocated within
a now-freed memory region, they can get overwritten in the background
task, leading to a hard crash.
This presumably can affect multiple I2S implementations, but it was
reported against the nRF one.
This PR refines the _bleio API. It was originally motivated by
the addition of a new CircuitPython service that enables reading
and modifying files on the device. Moving the BLE lifecycle outside
of the VM motivated a number of changes to remove heap allocations
in some APIs.
It also motivated unifying connection initiation to the Adapter class
rather than the Central and Peripheral classes which have been removed.
Adapter now handles the GAP portion of BLE including advertising, which
has moved but is largely unchanged, and scanning, which has been enhanced
to return an iterator of filtered results.
Once a connection is created (either by us (aka Central) or a remote
device (aka Peripheral)) it is represented by a new Connection class.
This class knows the current connection state and can discover and
instantiate remote Services along with their Characteristics and
Descriptors.

Also, move the rendering setup code to shared-module from
shared-bindings.
In CP 5.0, displayio_display_core_set_region_to_update now starts
its own transaction, so it has to be moved outside of the transaction
started by the render call.
