On ESP ctrl-c during fake sleep will now stop the sleep. A crash
on real deep sleep is now fixed as well. (Exception string saving
was crashing on reading the deep sleep exception.) Fixes#4010
This also fixes nRF fake sleep after the first time. The internal
variable wasn't being reset early enough. Fixes#4869
This commit makes gc_lock_depth have one counter per thread, instead of one
global counter. This makes threads properly independent with respect to
the GC, in particular threads can now independently lock the GC for
themselves without locking it for other threads. It also means a given
thread can run a hard IRQ without temporarily locking the GC for all other
threads and potentially making them have MemoryError exceptions at random
locations (this really only occurs on MCUs with multiple cores and no GIL,
eg on the rp2 port).
The commit also removes protection of the GC lock/unlock functions, which
is no longer needed when the counter is per thread (and this also fixes the
cas where a hard IRQ calling gc_lock() may stall waiting for the mutex).
It also puts the check for `gc_lock_depth > 0` outside the GC mutex in
gc_alloc, gc_realloc and gc_free, to potentially prevent a hard IRQ from
waiting on a mutex if it does attempt to allocate heap memory (and putting
the check outside the GC mutex is now safe now that there is a
gc_lock_depth per thread).

From a version numbering point of view this is a downgrade (2.17.0 ->
2.16.x). However the latest commit for version 2.17.0 is from March 2019
and no further minor release happened after 2.17.0. This version is EOL.
2.16.x though is still actively maintained as a long term release, hence
security and stability fixes are still being backported, including
compatibility with upcoming compiler releases.
The rp2040 is _very_ marginal for mp3 playback, and currently sometimes triggers a bug that gives garbled audio output. However, it does work for some limited situations.
Also found a race condition between timer_disable and redraw, which
would happen if I debugger-paused inside common_hal_rgbmatrix_timer_disable
or put a delay or print inside it. That's what pausing inside reconstruct
fixes.
So that the "right timer" can be chosen, `timer_allocate` now gets the `self`
pointer. It's guaranteed at this point that the pin information is accurate,
so you can e.g., find a PWM unit related to the pins themselves.
This required touching each port to add the parameter even though it's
unused everywhere but raspberrypi.
This was added a long time ago in 75abee206d
when USB host support was added to the stm (now stm32) port, and when this
pyexec code was actually part of the stm port. It's unlikely to work as
intended anymore. If it is needed in the future then generic hook macros
can be added in pyexec.
The RP2040 is new microcontroller from Raspberry Pi that features
two Cortex M0s and eight PIO state machines that are good for
crunching lots of data. It has 264k RAM and a built in UF2
bootloader too.
