Previously the desired output type was specified. Now make the type part
of the function name. Because this function is used in a few places this
saves code size due to smaller call-site.
This makes `mp_obj_new_str_type_from_vstr` a private function of objstr.c
(which is almost the only place where the output type isn't a compile-time
constant).
This saves ~140 bytes on PYBV11.

The implementation samples rosc.randombits at a frequency lower than the
oscillator frequency. This gives better random values. In addition, for
an 8-bit value 8 samples are taken and fed through a 8-bit CRC,
distributing the sampling over the byte. The resulting sampling rate is
about 120k/sec.
The RNG does not include testing of error conditions, like the ROSC being
in sync with the sampling or completely failing. Making the interim value
static causes it to perform a little bit better in short sync or drop-out
situations.
The output of uos.urandom() performs well with the NIST800-22 test suite.
In my trial it passed all tests of the sts 2.1.2 test suite. I also ran a
test of the random data with the Common Criteria test suite AIS 31, and it
passed all tests too.
This commit adds a new port "rp2" which targets the new Raspberry Pi RP2040
microcontroller.
The build system uses pure cmake (with a small Makefile wrapper for
convenience). The USB driver is TinyUSB, and there is a machine module
with most of the standard classes implemented. Some examples are provided
in the examples/rp2/ directory.
Work done in collaboration with Graham Sanderson.
