writeto_then_readfrom has been added to do a write -> no stop ->
repeated start -> read sequence. This is done to match the
capabilities of Blinka on Linux.
Code that uses stop=False will not work correctly on Blinka.
To fix, if stop=False then use writeto_then_readfrom otherwise use
writeto then readfrom_into.
First step in #2082
buffer from start, end and length. The old code miscomputed length
leading to writing and reading from memory past the end of the buffer.
Consolidating the code should make it easier to get right everywhere.
* Track status pin use by user code separately so it can take over the pins and then give them back.
* Switch to hardware SPI for APA102 on Gemma and Trinket.
* Merge microcontroller/types.h into microcontroller/Pin.h to better match approach going forwards.
This was done to allow greatly granularity when deciding what functionality
is built into each board's build. For example, this way pulseio can be
omitted to allow for something else such as touchio.
This class focuses on the timing sensitive parts of the protocol.
Everything else will be done by Python code.
This also establishes that its OK to back a nativeio class with a
bitbang implementation when no hardware acceleration exists. When
it does, then bitbangio should be used to explicitly bitbang a
protocol.
1) Bus error will be thrown on read/write errors with errno set. (Read didn't used to fail at all.)
2) try_lock correctly returns boolean whether lock was grabbed.

It differs from upstream's machine in the following ways:
* Python API is identical across ports due to code structure. (Lives in shared-bindings)
* Focuses on abstracting common functionality (AnalogIn) and not representing structure (ADC).
* Documentation lives with code making it easy to ensure they match.
* Pin is split into references (board.D13 and microcontroller.pin.PA17) and functionality (DigitalInOut).
* All nativeio classes claim underlying hardware resources when inited on construction, support Context Managers (aka with statements) and have deinit methods which release the claimed hardware.
* All constructors take pin references rather than peripheral ids. Its up to the implementation to find hardware or throw and exception.
