The port now uses the common mp_utime_ticks_{ms,us,cpu,add,diff} functions
from extmod/utime_mphal.c.
The mp_utime_sleep_XXX functions are still cc3200-specific because they
handle the GIL differently to the ones in extmod.
The files misc/mpsystick.[ch] have been removed because they contain 2
unused functions, and the other remaining function is renamed to
mp_hal_ticks_us and moved to hal/cc3200_hal.c.
py/mphal.h contains declarations for generic mp_hal_XXX functions, such
as stdio and delay/ticks, which ports should provide definitions for. A
port will also provide mphalport.h with further HAL declarations.
Such functions are never used after MicroPython has started, and they
remain in RAM wasting space. Now they are placed in a special section
named "boot" which sits just before the heap, allowing us to extend
the effective heap area up to the new boot section. Right now, this
gives us back ~1K, but in the future, more functions might end up in
there as well.
I2C objects can be freed by the GC and a __del__ method is provided
in order to de-init the peripheral prior to being garbage collected.
UART objects are now added to a local list and this list is now part
of the VM_STATE.
The port currently implements support for GPIO, RTC, ExtInt and the WiFi
subsystem. A small file system is available in the serial flash. A
bootloader which makes OTA updates possible, is also part of this initial
implementation.
