This adds #ifdefs around each of the mp_hal_* time functions for the unix
port. This allows variants to override individual functions as needed.

This introduces a new macro to get the main thread and uses it to ensure
that asynchronous exceptions such as KeyboardInterrupt (CTRL+C) are only
scheduled on the main thread. This is more deterministic than being
scheduled on a random thread and is more in line with CPython that only
allow signal handlers to run on the main thread.
Fixes issue #7026.

This moves mp_pending_exception from mp_state_vm_t to mp_state_thread_t.
This allows exceptions to be scheduled on a specific thread.

This implements something similar to PEP 475 on the unix port, and for the
VfsPosix class.
There are a few differences from the CPython implementation:
- Since we call mp_handle_pending() between any ENITR's, additional
functions could be called if MICROPY_ENABLE_SCHEDULER is enabled, not
just signal handlers.
- CPython only handles signal on the main thread, so other threads will
raise InterruptedError instead of retrying. On MicroPython,
mp_handle_pending() will currently raise exceptions on any thread.
A new macro MP_HAL_RETRY_SYSCALL is introduced to reduce duplicated code
and ensure that all instances behave the same. This will also allow other
ports that use POSIX-like system calls (and use, eg, VfsPosix) to provide
their own implementation if needed.
The mp_keyboard_interrupt() function does exactly what is needed here, and
using it gets ctrl-C working when MICROPY_ENABLE_SCHEDULER is enabled on
these ports (and MICROPY_ASYNC_KBD_INTR is disabled).
It is not safe to enable MICROPY_ASYNC_KBD_INTR and MICROPY_PY_THREAD_GIL
at the same time. This will trigger a compiler error to ensure that it
is not possible to make this mistake.
Addition of GIL EXIT/ENTER pairs are:
- modos: release the GIL during system calls. CPython does this as well.
- moduselect: release the GIL during the poll() syscall. This call can be
blocking, so it is important to allow other threads to run at this time.
- modusocket: release the GIL during system calls. Many of these calls can
be blocking, so it is important to allow other threads to run.
- unix_mphal: release the GIL during the read and write syscalls in
mp_hal_stdin_rx_chr and mp_hal_stdout_tx_strn. If we don't do this
threads are blocked when the REPL or the builtin input function are used.
- file, main, mpconfigport.h: release GIL during syscalls in built-in
functions that could block.
The uos.dupterm() signature and behaviour is updated to reflect the latest
enhancements in the docs. It has minor backwards incompatibility in that
it no longer accepts zero arguments.
The dupterm_rx helper function is moved from esp8266 to extmod and
generalised to support multiple dupterm slots.
A port can specify multiple slots by defining the MICROPY_PY_OS_DUPTERM
config macro to an integer, being the number of slots it wants to have;
0 means to disable the dupterm feature altogether.
The unix and esp8266 ports are updated to work with the new interface and
are otherwise unchanged with respect to functionality.
Header files that are considered internal to the py core and should not
normally be included directly are:
py/nlr.h - internal nlr configuration and declarations
py/bc0.h - contains bytecode macro definitions
py/runtime0.h - contains basic runtime enums
Instead, the top-level header files to include are one of:
py/obj.h - includes runtime0.h and defines everything to use the
mp_obj_t type
py/runtime.h - includes mpstate.h and hence nlr.h, obj.h, runtime0.h,
and defines everything to use the general runtime support functions
Additional, specific headers (eg py/objlist.h) can be included if needed.
This is to keep the top-level directory clean, to make it clear what is
core and what is a port, and to allow the repository to grow with new ports
in a sustainable way.
