I have a function where it should be impossible to reach the end, so I put in a safe-mode reset at the bottom:
```
int find_unused_slot(void) {
// precondition: you already verified that a slot was available
for (int i=0; i<NUM_SLOTS; i++) {
if( slot_free(i)) {
return i;
}
}
safe_mode_reset(MICROPY_FATAL_ERROR);
}
```
However, the compiler still gave a diagnostic, because safe_mode_reset was not declared NORETURN.
So I started by teaching the compiler that reset_into_safe_mode never returned. This leads at least one level deeper due to reset_cpu needing to be a NORETURN function. Each port is a little different in this area. I also marked reset_to_bootloader as NORETURN.
Additional notes:
* stm32's reset_to_bootloader was not implemented, but now does a bare reset. Most stm32s are not fitted with uf2 bootloaders anyway.
* ditto cxd56
* esp32s2 did not implement reset_cpu at all. I used esp_restart(). (not tested)
* litex did not implement reset_cpu at all. I used reboot_ctrl_write. But notably this is what reset_to_bootloader already did, so one or the other must be incorrect (not tested). reboot_ctrl_write cannot be declared NORETURN, as it returns unless the special value 0xac is written), so a new unreachable forever-loop is added.
* cxd56's reset is via a boardctl() call which can't generically be declared NORETURN, so a new unreacahble "for(;;)" forever-loop is added.
* In several places, NVIC_SystemReset is redeclared with NORETURN applied. This is accepted just fine by gcc. I chose this as preferable to editing the multiple copies of CMSIS headers where it is normally declared.
* the stub safe_mode reset simply aborts. This is used in mpy-cross.
Despite the [silk on the dock board](https://wiki.makerdiary.com/nrf52840-m2-devkit/resources/nrf52840_m2_devkit_hw_diagram_v1_0.pdf), the SDA/SCL pins weren't defined. Though, they were already defined in `mpconfigboard.h`.
Same for RX/TX. It looks like it declared `TXD` and `RXD`, so I didn't want to remove those, but I think it makes sense to have the "standard" pin names, but I moved ithem to illustrate they were all referencing the same pins.
I mimicked the whitespace I saw in the metro_nrf52840_express port.
