Initial support for machine.RTC on rp2 port. It only supports datetime()
method and nothing else. The method gets/returns a tuple of 8 items, just
like esp32 port, for example, but the usec parameter is ignored as the RP2
RTC only works up to seconds precision.
The Pico RTC isn't very useful as the time is lost during reset and there
seems to be no way to easily power up just the RTC clock with a low current
voltage, but still there seems to be use-cases for that, see issues #6831,
and a Thonny issue #1592. It was also requested for inclusion on v1.15
roadmap on #6832.

When UART is used for REPL and the MCU frequency is changed, the UART
has to be re-initialised. Besides that the UART may have to be recreated
after a frequency change, but with USB REPL this is not a problem.
Thanks to @HermannSW for spotting and providing the change.
Using the standard machine.freq().
The safe ranges tested were 10 and 12-270MHz, at which USB REPL still
worked. Requested settings can be checked with the script:
pico-sdk/src/rp2_common/hardware_clocks/scripts/vcocalc.py. At frequencies
like 300MHz the script still signaled OK, but USB did not work any more.
This commit adds a new port "rp2" which targets the new Raspberry Pi RP2040
microcontroller.
The build system uses pure cmake (with a small Makefile wrapper for
convenience). The USB driver is TinyUSB, and there is a machine module
with most of the standard classes implemented. Some examples are provided
in the examples/rp2/ directory.
Work done in collaboration with Graham Sanderson.
