I was puzzled by why the dictionary words were sorted by length.
It was because TextSplitter sorted its parameter, instead of a copy.
This doesn't affect encoding size, but does affect the encoding NUMBER
of the found words. We'll deliberately restore sorting by length next,
for other reasons, but not by spooky action.
Try to accurately measure the costs of including a word in the dictionary
vs the gains from using it in messages.
This saves about 160 bytes on trinket_m0 ja, the fullest translation
for that board. Other translations on the same board all have savings,
ranging from 24 to 228 bytes.

As the CircuitPython grows, it may at some point no longer be possible
to squeeze it on some of the flash-less SAMD21 boards, so it would be
good to have the option of shrinking the filesystem size on per-board
basis. This change allows to define CIRCUITPY_INTERNAL_FLASH_FILESYSTEM_SIZE
inside the board's mpconfigborard.h file.
1. Check for correct error values from dma_claim_unused_channel.
2. Introduce a .stereo flag for simplicity.
3. Clarify PWM carrier frequency choice.
4. Start introducing quiescent audio value. Still need to ramp up/down.
5. Redo audio stop logic a bit.
6. Fix (unrelated) displayio dependency things.
There is still an interference problem between other DMA users and audio. Still debugging this.
By comparing the address of the initial 'name' field instead of the
addresses of the objects themselves, a small amount of type safety is
added back, vs just casting to void.
In the event that some other kind of object is passed in as 't',
which happens to have a 'name' field of the right type, the construct
would be (undesirably) accepted but it would almost certainly evaluate
to false at runtime.
