Add an rtc module that provides a singleton RTC class with
- a datetime property to set and get time if the board supports it.
- a calbration property to adjust the clock.
There's also an rtc.set_time_source() method to override this RTC object using pure python.
The time module gets 3 methods:
- time.time()
- time.localtime()
- time.mktime()
The rtc timesource is used to provide time to the time module.
lib/timeutils is used for time conversions and thus only supports dates after 2000.
This evolves the API from 2.x (and breaks it). Playback devices are now
separate from the samples themselves. This allows for greater playback
flexibility. Two sample sources are audioio.RawSample and audioio.WaveFile.
They can both be mono or stereo. They can be output to audioio.AudioOut or
audiobusio.I2SOut.
Internally, the dma tracking has changed from a TC counting block transfers
to an interrupt generated by the block event sent to the EVSYS. This reduces
the overhead of each DMA transfer so multiple can occure without using up TCs.
Fixes#652. Fixes#522. Huge progress on #263
Building with gcc 5.4.1 (Debian Stretch) with the unsupported

occurs:

1. UART: ported to ASF4. Allow rx-only and tx-only. Add .baudrate r/w property.
2. Make NeoPixel timing deterministic by turning off caches during NeoPixel writes.
3. Incorporate asf4 updates:
a. async USART driver
b. bringing Atmel START configuration closer to what we use
c. Clock initialization order now specified by CIRCUITPY_GCLK_INIT_1ST and _LAST.
4. supervisor/port.c: Move commented-out clock-test pin setting to correct location.
all: Add .frequency read-only property for busio.SPI to return actual frequency.
Fix esp8266/posix_helpers.c, which was not up to date for the new
long-lived/short-lived heap allocation scheme.
shared_bindings/index.rst: updated Support Matrix format as discussed in PR #503 & Issue #448.
shared-bindings/microcontroller/Processor.c & .h: added UID lookup functionality for use with all ports. Fixes#462.
The example code for the gamepad module would skip detected
button presses in the code that waits for a button to be released,
because it would run it even when no button is pressed.
Also updated the example pin names to not use RX and TX.
shared-bindings/index.rst: added `aduiobusio` to Support Matrix. Used `audiobusio/_init_.c` to verify applicable ports; SAMD21 was the only one listed...ESP8266 wasn't. This fixes issue #448.
/docs/design_guide: added links to firmware build learning guides for SAMD21 & ESP8266. Changes were placed in the "Adding native modules" section, since that seemed to me the best place based on target audience.
Updated documentation for `delay()` which fixes#243.
Changes:
* New faster filter loop, by @ladyada. New filter coefficients as well.
* Turn on microphone clock when PDMIn object is created, and run it all the time, so the user code doesn't have to wait for microphone startup, which can be 10ms or even 100ms.
* Wait for microphone startup when PDMIn is first created, based on new optional parameter microphone_startup in seconds (takes a float).
* record() returns number of samples actually recorded, so you can see if it's not keeping up.
* Fix buffer overflow errors when buffer size was not a multiple of 16 or something like that.
* Tweak a few peripheral settings.
* Minimum sampling frequency is now 16kHZ or so, because 8kHz runs microphone at only 0.5MHz, which is too slow for many mics.
Note: I tried 128x oversampling instead of 64x, but the code cannot keep up at 24kHz or above sampling. 128x would reduce the high-frequency noise by 6db.
