This provides a standard interface to setting the global networking config
for all interfaces and interface types.
For ports that already use either a static hostname (mimxrt, rp2) they will
now use the configured value. The default is configured by the port
(or optionally the board).
For interfaces that previously supported .config(hostname), this is still
supported but now implemented using the global network.hostname.
Similarly, pyb.country and rp2.country are now deprecated, but the methods
still exist (and forward to network.hostname).
Because ESP32/ESP8266 do not use extmod/modnetwork.c they are not affected
by this commit.

This was previously implemented by adding additional members to the
mp_obj_type_t defined for each NIC, which is difficult to do cleanly with
the new object type slots mechanism. The way this works is also not
supported on GCC 8.x and below.
Instead replace it with the type protocol, which is a much simpler way of
achieving the same thing.
This affects the WizNet (in non-LWIP mode) and Nina NIC drivers.

This will always have the maximum/minimum size of a mp_obj_type_t
representation and can be used as a member in other structs.

To simplify the socket state.
The CC3K driver (see drivers/cc3000/inc/socket.h and src/socket.c) has
socket() returning an INT16 so there is now enough room to store it
directly in the fileno member.
