.. a requirement that oofatfs needs to be taught to respect.
This problem can be demonstrated with the following snippet, except
that the related file ("test.bin") must also be contiguous on the
filesystem. You can ensure this by reformatting your device's filesystem
before testing, then copying any single file bigger than 4kB to test.bin.
f = open("test.bin", "rb")
f.seek(2048)
b = bytearray(2048)
v = memoryview(b)
f.readinto(v[909:])

The "spacing" of "buffer structure" is confusing, use the "channel count"
instead.
Testing performed on nrf52840 feather:
Play stereo and mono, 8- and 16-bit, 8kHz RawSamples representing 333.33Hz
square waves.
Use both mono and stereo PWMAudioOut instances.
Scope the RC-filtered signal and use the scope's frequency
measurement function, verify the frequency is 333 or 334Hz in all tested
cases.
In the "stereo output" cases, verify both the L and R channels. Verify
the output amplitude is the same in both channels.
In the "stereo output" cases, run a second test where the L channel's
amplitude is attenuated 50%. Verify the output amplitude is correct
in each channel.
The sample width register was never set, so all samples were played
as though they were 16 bit.
After this change, 8-bit samples no longer produce audio on the MAX 98357A
BOB, because only 16-, 24-, and 32-bit samples are supported by the
hardware. This will be addressed by a future change to pad samples to
16 bits; see #2323 and the 98357A datasheet page 6.
The meaning of the "single channel" parameter is not well-documented,
but in fact it seems that "true" must be passed or else the returned
channel_count is always 1. This caused stereo samples to be played
incorrectly.
This caused two problems when playing unsigned samples:
* When an even number of samples were present, it "worked" but only
every other sample was copied into the output, changing the waveform
* When an odd number of samples were present, the copy continued beyond
the end of the buffers and caused a hard fault
If we put no samples into the buffer, then there is no last
sample to fill out hold_value with. (and, in fact, the expression such
as *(uint32_t*)(buffer-4) is outside an allocated region)
Detect this condition, and leave the prior value in place.
This improves clicks heard when pausing and resuming a waveform.
This code is shared by most parts, except where not all the #ifdefs
inside the tick function were present in all ports. This mostly would
have broken gamepad tick support on non-samd ports.
The "ms32" and "ms64" variants of the tick functions are introduced
because there is no 64-bit atomic read. Disabling interrupts avoids
a low probability bug where milliseconds could be off by ~49.5 days
once every ~49.5 days (2^32 ms).
Avoiding disabling interrupts when only the low 32 bits are needed is a minor
optimization.
Testing performed: on metro m4 express, USB still works and
time.monotonic_ns() still counts up
