So far, this supports only 16kHz and 16-bit samples with a fixed gain.
This is enough to support the basic functionality of e.g., sensing
ambient audio levels.
Some ports which actually don't have audioio or audiobusio were still
calling into audio_dma_background(). This wasn't an error until
the assignment to audio_dma_state in audio_dma_stop was added, though
it's not clear why.
audio_dma_stop can be reached twice in normal usage of AudioOut.
This may bear further investigation, but stop it here, by making the
function check for a previously freed channel number. This also prevents
the event channel from being disabled twice.
The first stop location is from audio_dma_get_playing, when the buffers
are exhausted; the second is from common_hal_audioio_audioout_stop when
checking the 'playing' flag.
As identified in #1908, when both AudioOut and PDMIn are used, hard
locks can occur. Because audio_dma_stop didn't clear audio_dma_state[],
a future call to audio_dma_load_next_block could occur using a DMA
object which belongs to PDMIn.
I believe that this Closes: #1908 though perhaps it is still not the full
story.
Testing performed: Loaded a sketch similar to the one on #1908 that
tends to reproduce the bug within ~30s. Ran for >300s without hard
lock. HOWEVER, while my cpx is no longer hard locking, it occasionally
(<1 / 200s) announces
Code done running. Waiting for reload.
(and does so), even though my main loop is surrounded by a 'while True:'
condition, so there are still gremlins nearby.
The original formulation was because I saw the need to avoid a transition
from playing to stopped exactly when a resume was taking place. However,
@tannewt was concerned about this pause causing trouble, because it could
be relatively lengthy (several ms even in a typical case).
After reflection, I've convinced myself that updating the registers
in this order in resume avoids a window where a "stopped" event can
be missed as long as the shortcut is updated first.
Testing re-performed: pause/resume testing of looped RawSample and
WaveFile audio sources.
Testing performed: installed freshly built .uf2 on a Particle Xenon.
Checked that circuitpython still starts.
Checked that the size of all .uf2 files for nrf builds are plausible.
Aside from memory savings, the performance of Python code (pystone)
increased by about +14%.
However, this adds about 12-16 seconds to each nrf build.

the SPI object reference as that won't work.
