883e987b90 esp32/modsocket: Raise EAGAIN when accept fails in non-blocking mode.
EAGAIN should be for pure non-blocking mode and ETIMEDOUT for when there is
a finite (but non-zero) timeout enabled.

0557f0b74b esp32/network_ppp: Add a timeout for closing PPP connection.
This also fixes deleting the PPP task, since eTaskGetState() never returns
eDeleted.

A limitation with this patch: once the PPP is deactivated (ppp.active(0))
it cannot be used again. A new PPP instance must be created instead.

fbd4e61e57 esp32/machine_wdt: Add timeout arg to select interval, make WDT panic.
The machine.WDT() now accepts the "timeout" keyword argument to select the
WDT interval.  And the WDT is changed to panic mode which means it will
reset the device if the interval expires (instead of just printing an error
message).

0646e607b5 ports: Convert to use pyexec_file_if_exists() to execute boot/main.py.
The stm32 and nrf ports already had the behaviour that they would first
check if the script exists before executing it, and this patch makes all
other ports work the same way.  This helps when developing apps because
it's hard to tell (when unconditionally trying to execute the scripts) if
the resulting OSError at boot up comes from missing boot.py or main.py, or
from some other error.  And it's not really an error if these scripts don't
exist.

673db939b5 esp32/machine_pin: Rework pull mode config to fix GPIO hold feature.

21f9329d5d esp32/modnetwork: Fix wifi.isconnected to return False after disconnect.
esp_wifi_connect will return ESP_OK for the normal path of execution which
just means the reconnect is started, not that it is actually reconnected.
In such a case wifi.isconnected() should return False until the
reconnection is complete.  After reconnect a GOT_IP event is called and it
will change wifi_sta_connected back to True.

812969d615 all: Change PYB message prefix to MPY.
Replaces "PYB: soft reboot" with "MPY: soft reboot", etc.

Having a consistent prefix across ports reduces the difference between
ports, which is a general goal.  And this change won't break pyboard.py
because that tool only looks for "soft reboot".

f431795caf esp32/boards: Use auto xtal freq config instead of default 40MHz.
Auto-detection of the crystal frequency is convenient and allows for a
single binary for many different boards.  But it can be unreliable in
certain situations so in production, for a given board, it's recommended to
configure the correct fixed frequency.

3d49b157b8 esp32: Update to latest ESP IDF using sdkconfig and new ldgen procedure.
Configuration for the build is now specified using sdkconfig rather than
sdkconfig.h, which allows for much easier configuration with defaults from
the ESP IDF automatically applied.  sdkconfig.h is generated using the new
ESP IDF kconfig_new tool written in Python.  Custom configuration for a
particular ESP32 board can be specified via the make variable SDKCONFIG.

The esp32.common.ld file is also now generated using the standard ESP IDF
ldgen.py tool.

f59904f799 esp32/Makefile: Put all IDF compenents in .a libs to use IDF ld script.
When the ESP IDF builds a project it puts all separate components into
separate .a library archives.  And then the esp32.common.ld linker script
references these .a libraries by explicit name to put certain object files
in iRAM.

This patch does a similar thing for the custom build system used here,
putting all IDF .o's into their respective .a.  So a custom linker script
is no longer needed.

e7ab475276 esp32: Don't put py/scheduler.o in iRAM, it's no longer needed.
ISR's no longer need to be in iRAM, and the ESP IDF provides an option to
specify that they are in iRAM if an application needs lower latency when
handling them.  But we don't use this feature for user interrupts: both
timer and gpio ISR routines are registered without the ESP_INTR_FLAG_IRAM
option, and so the scheduling code no longer needs to be in iRAM.

eb446ec227 esp32/Makefile: Use system provided math library rather than uPy one.
The ESP IDF system already provides a math library, and that one is likely
to be better tuned to the Xtensa architecture.  The IDF components are also
tested against its own math library, so best not to override it.  Using the
system provided library also allows to easily switch to double-precision
floating point by changing MICROPY_FLOAT_IMPL to MICROPY_FLOAT_IMPL_DOUBLE.

f350b640a0 esp32/modsocket: For socket read only release GIL if socket would block.

485514f57a esp32: Allocate task TCB and stack from system heap not uPy heap.
This is necessary for two reasons: 1) FreeRTOS still needs the TCB data
structure even after vPortCleanUpTCB has been called, so this latter hook
function cannot free the TCB, and there is no where else to safely delete
it (this behaviour has changed recently in the ESP IDF); 2) when using
external SPI RAM the uPy heap is in this external memory but the task stack
must be allocated from internal SRAM.

c3c914f4dd esp8266,esp32: Implement high-res timers using new tick_hz argument.
machine.Timer now takes a new argument in its constructor (or init method):
tick_hz which specified the units for the period argument.  The period of
the timer in seconds is: period/tick_hz.

For backwards compatibility tick_hz defaults to 1000.  If the user wants to
specify the period (numerator) in microseconds then tick_hz can be set to
1000000.  The user can also specify a period of an arbitrary number of
cycles of an arbitrary frequency using these two arguments.

An additional freq argument has been added to allow frequencies to be
specified directly in Hertz.  This supports floating point values when
available.

14ab81e87a esp32: Reduce latency for handling of scheduled Python callbacks.
Prior to this patch there was a large latency for executing scheduled
callbacks when when Python code is sleeping: at the heart of the
implementation of sleep_ms() is a call to vTaskDelay(1), which always
sleeps for one 100Hz tick, before performing another call to
MICROPY_EVENT_POLL_HOOK.

This patch fixes this issue by using FreeRTOS Task Notifications to signal
the main thread that a new callback is pending.

039f196c56 esp32/modnetwork: Fix isconnected() when using static IP config.
Currently <WLAN>.isconnected() always returns True if a static IP is set,

This patch introduces a new flag 'wifi_sta_connected' which is set in
event_handler() when GOT_IP event is received and reset when DISCONNECTED
event is received (unless re-connect is successful).  isconnected() now
simply returns the status of this flag (for STA_IF).

renamed to 'wifi_sta_connect_requested'.

a90124a9e2 esp32: Add support for building with external SPI RAM.
This patch adds support for building the firmware with external SPI RAM
enabled.  It is disabled by default because it adds overhead (due to
silicon workarounds) and reduces performance (because it's slower to have
bytecode and objects stored in external RAM).

To enable it, either use "make CONFIG_SPIRAM_SUPPORT=1", or add this line
to you custom makefile/GNUmakefile (before "include Makefile"):

    CONFIG_SPIRAM_SUPPORT = 1

When this option is enabled the MicroPython heap is automatically allocated
in external SPI RAM.

so this patch adds explicit checks and logic for peer closed sockets.

fb7dabb971 esp32/README: Add --init to submodule update command.
Add --init to the submodule update example, thus, all submodules get
initialised including the nested (--recursive) ones.  Without it there
might not be a submodule init.

999c8b9711 esp32/modsocket: Add support for registering socket event callbacks.
The esp8266 uses modlwip.c for its usocket implementation, which allows to
easily support callbacks on socket events (like when a socket becomes ready
for reading).  This is not as easy to do for the esp32 which uses the
ESP-IDF-provided lwIP POSIX socket API.  Socket events are needed to get
WebREPL working, and this patch provides a way for such events to work by
explicitly polling registered sockets for readability, and then calling the
associated callback if the socket is readable.

4ff05ae4e9 esp32/machine_uart: Remove UART event queue object.
This event queue has UART events posted to it and they need to be drained
for it to operate without error.  The queue is not used by the uPy UART
class so it should be removed to prevent the IDF emitting errors.

Fixes #3704.

cf31d384f1 py/stream: Switch stream close operation from method to ioctl.
This patch moves the implementation of stream closure from a dedicated
method to the ioctl of the stream protocol, for each type that implements
closing.  The benefits of this are:

1. Rounds out the stream ioctl function, which already includes flush,
   seek and poll (among other things).

2. Makes calling mp_stream_close() on an object slightly more efficient
   because it now no longer needs to lookup the close method and call it,
   rather it just delegates straight to the ioctl function (if it exists).

3. Reduces code size and allows future types that implement the stream
   protocol to be smaller because they don't need a dedicated close method.

Code size reduction is around 200 bytes smaller for x86 archs and around
30 bytes smaller for the bare-metal archs.
