Code in tools/mpy-tool.py and py/frozenmod.c relies on the source file
path encoded in a .mpy file to have forward slashes (e.g. by searching
for '/__init__.py'). Enforce that when creating these files, thereby
fixing import of .mpy files and frozen modules not working before
because they could have backslashes when built with the windows port.
This change makes it so the compiler and persistent code loader take a
mp_compiled_module_t* as their last argument, instead of returning this
struct. This eliminates a duplicate context variable for all callers of
these functions (because the context is now stored in the
mp_compiled_module_t by the caller), and also eliminates any confusion
about which context to use after the mp_compile_to_raw_code or
mp_raw_code_load function returns (because there is now only one context,
that stored in mp_compiled_module_t.context).
Reduces code size by 16 bytes on ARM Cortex-based ports.

If `-march` isn't set then it means the user hasn't thought about it, or in
the case of freezing, MPY_CROSS_FLAGS isn't set. It's almost certainly
going to lead to problems, as there's no reason why the host architecture
is likely to be the right choice.
Compiling regular Python code is unaffected, but if `@native`/`@viper` is
used, the compiler will raise `SyntaxError: invalid arch`.
For situations where you explicitly want to use the host architecture (e.g.
for running tests on the unix port), added -march=host that keeps the old
behavior.

The intent is to allow us to make breaking changes to the native ABI (e.g.
changes to dynruntime.h) without needing the bytecode version to increment.
With this commit the two bits previously used for the feature flags (but
now unused as of .mpy version 6) encode a sub-version. A bytecode-only
.mpy file can be loaded as long as MPY_VERSION matches, but a native .mpy
(i.e. one with an arch set) must also match MPY_SUB_VERSION. This allows 3
additional updates to the native ABI per bytecode revision.
The sub-version is set to 1 because the previous commits that changed the
layout of mp_obj_type_t have changed the native ABI.

The following changes are made:
- If MICROPY_VFS is enabled then mp_vfs_import_stat and mp_vfs_open are
automatically used for mp_import_stat and mp_builtin_open respectively.
- If MICROPY_PY_IO is enabled then "open" is automatically included in the
set of builtins, and points to mp_builtin_open_obj.
This helps to clean up and simplify the most common port configuration.

Prior to this commit, even with unicode disabled .py and .mpy files could
contain unicode characters, eg by entering them directly in a string as
utf-8 encoded.
The only thing the compiler disallowed (with unicode disabled) was using
\uxxxx and \Uxxxxxxxx notation to specify a character within a string with
value >= 0x100; that would give a SyntaxError.
With this change mpy-cross will now accept \u and \U notation to insert a
character with value >= 0x100 into a string (because the -mno-unicode
option is now gone, there's no way to forbid this). The runtime will
happily work with strings with such characters, just like it already works
with strings with characters that were utf-8 encoded directly.
This change simplifies things because there are no longer any feature
flags in .mpy files, and any bytecode .mpy will now run on any target.

Background: .mpy files are precompiled .py files, built using mpy-cross,
that contain compiled bytecode functions (and can also contain machine
code). The benefit of using an .mpy file over a .py file is that they are
faster to import and take less memory when importing. They are also
smaller on disk.
But the real benefit of .mpy files comes when they are frozen into the
firmware. This is done by loading the .mpy file during compilation of the
firmware and turning it into a set of big C data structures (the job of
mpy-tool.py), which are then compiled and downloaded into the ROM of a
device. These C data structures can be executed in-place, ie directly from
ROM. This makes importing even faster because there is very little to do,
and also means such frozen modules take up much less RAM (because their
bytecode stays in ROM).
The downside of frozen code is that it requires recompiling and reflashing
the entire firmware. This can be a big barrier to entry, slows down
development time, and makes it harder to do OTA updates of frozen code
(because the whole firmware must be updated).
This commit attempts to solve this problem by providing a solution that
sits between loading .mpy files into RAM and freezing them into the
firmware. The .mpy file format has been reworked so that it consists of
data and bytecode which is mostly static and ready to run in-place. If
these new .mpy files are located in flash/ROM which is memory addressable,
the .mpy file can be executed (mostly) in-place.
With this approach there is still a small amount of unpacking and linking
of the .mpy file that needs to be done when it's imported, but it's still
much better than loading an .mpy from disk into RAM (although not as good
as freezing .mpy files into the firmware).
The main trick to make static .mpy files is to adjust the bytecode so any
qstrs that it references now go through a lookup table to convert from
local qstr number in the module to global qstr number in the firmware.
That means the bytecode does not need linking/rewriting of qstrs when it's
loaded. Instead only a small qstr table needs to be built (and put in RAM)
at import time. This means the bytecode itself is static/constant and can
be used directly if it's in addressable memory. Also the qstr string data
in the .mpy file, and some constant object data, can be used directly.
Note that the qstr table is global to the module (ie not per function).
In more detail, in the VM what used to be (schematically):
qst = DECODE_QSTR_VALUE;
is now (schematically):
idx = DECODE_QSTR_INDEX;
qst = qstr_table[idx];
That allows the bytecode to be fixed at compile time and not need
relinking/rewriting of the qstr values. Only qstr_table needs to be linked
when the .mpy is loaded.
Incidentally, this helps to reduce the size of bytecode because what used
to be 2-byte qstr values in the bytecode are now (mostly) 1-byte indices.
If the module uses the same qstr more than two times then the bytecode is
smaller than before.
The following changes are measured for this commit compared to the
previous (the baseline):
- average 7%-9% reduction in size of .mpy files
- frozen code size is reduced by about 5%-7%
- importing .py files uses about 5% less RAM in total
- importing .mpy files uses about 4% less RAM in total
- importing .py and .mpy files takes about the same time as before
The qstr indirection in the bytecode has only a small impact on VM
performance. For stm32 on PYBv1.0 the performance change of this commit
is:

As part of this change the .mpy file format version is bumped to version 6.
And mpy-tool.py has been improved to provide a good visualisation of the
contents of .mpy files.
In summary: this commit changes the bytecode to use qstr indirection, and
reworks the .mpy file format to be simpler and allow .mpy files to be
executed in-place. Performance is not impacted too much. Eventually it
will be possible to store such .mpy files in a linear, read-only, memory-
mappable filesystem so they can be executed from flash/ROM. This will
essentially be able to replace frozen code for most applications.

Boosted performance, board.json metadata, more mimxrt, rp2, samd features
This release of MicroPython sees a boost to the overall performance of the
VM and runtime. This is achieved by the addition of an optional cache to
speed up general hash table lookups, as well as a fast path in the VM for
the LOAD_ATTR opcode on instance types. The new configuration options are
MICROPY_OPT_MAP_LOOKUP_CACHE and MICROPY_OPT_LOAD_ATTR_FAST_PATH. As part
of this improvement the MICROPY_OPT_CACHE_MAP_LOOKUP_IN_BYTECODE option has
been removed, which provided a similar map caching mechanism but with the
cache stored in the bytecode, which made it not useful on bare metal ports.
The new mechanism is measured to be at least as good as the old one,
applies to more map lookups, has a constant RAM overhead, and applies to
native code as well as bytecode.
These performance options are enabled on the esp32, mimxrt, rp2, stm32 and
unix ports. For esp32 and mimxrt some code is also moved to RAM to further
boost performance. On stm32, performance increases by about 20% for
benchmarks that are heavy on name lookups, like misc_pystone.py and
misc_raytrace.py. On esp32 performance can increase by 2-3x, and on mimxrt
it is up to 6x.
All boards in all ports now have a board.json metadata file, which is used
to automatically build firmware and generate a webpage for that board
(among other possibilities). Auto-build scripts have been added for this
purpose and they build all esp32, mimxrt, rp2, samd and stm32 boards. The
generated output is available at https://micropython.org/download.
Support for FROZEN_DIR and FROZEN_MPY_DIR has been deprecated for some time
and was finally removed in this release. Instead of these, FROZEN_MANIFEST
can be used. The io.resource_stream() function is also removed, replaced
by the pure Python version in micropython-lib.
The search order for importing frozen Python modules is now controlled by
the ".frozen" entry in sys.path. This string is added by default in the
second position in sys.path. User code should adjust sys.path depending on
the desired behaviour. Putting ".frozen" first in sys.path will speed up
importing frozen modules.
A bug in multiple precision integers with bitwise of -0 was fixed in commit
2c139bbf4e.
The platform module has been added to allow querying the compiler and
underlying SDK/HAL/libc version. This is enabled on esp32, mimxrt and
stm32 ports.
The mpremote tool now supports seek, flush, mkdir and rmdir on PC-mounted
filesystems. And a help command has been added.
The documentation has seen many additions and improvements thanks (for a
second time) to the Google Season of Docs project. The rp2 documentation
now includes a reference for PIO assembly instructions, a PIO quick
reference and a PIO tutorial. The random and stm modules have been
documented, along with sys.settrace, manifest.py files and mpremote. There
is also now more detail about the differences between MicroPython and
standard Python 3.5 and above.
The esp32 port sees support for ESP32-S3 SoCs, and new boards GENERIC_S3,
ESP32_S2_WROVER, LOLIN_S2_MINI, LOLIN_S2_PICO and UM_FEATHERS2NEO. The PWM
driver has been improved and now supports all PWM timers and channels, and
the duty_u16() and duty_ns() methods, and it keeps the duty constant when
changing frequency. The machine.bitstream() function has been improved to
use RMT, with an option to select the original bit-banging implementation.
The mimxrt port gained new hardware features: SDRAM and SD card support, as
well as network integration with a LAN driver. The machine.WDT class was
added along with the machine.reset_cause(), machine.soft_reset(),
machine.unique_id() add machine.bitstream() functions. DHT sensor support
was added, and f-strings were enabled.
The rp2 port now has support for networking, and bluetooth using NimBLE.
The Nina-W10 WiFi/BT driver is fully integrated and supported by the new
Arduino Nano RP2040 connect board. I2S protocol support is added along
with a machine.bitstream() driver and DHT sensor support. The PWM driver
had a bug fix with the accuracy of setting/getting the frequency, and the
duty value is now retained when changing the frequency.
On the samd port there is now support for the internal flash being a block
device, and for filesystems and the os module. Pin and LED classes have
been implemented. There are more time functions, more Python features
enabled, and the help() function is added. SEEED_WIO_TERMINAL and
SEEED_XIAO board definitions are now available.
The stm32 port now has support for F427, F479 and H7A3(Q)/H7B3(Q) MCUs, and
new board definitions for VCC_GND_H743VI, OLIMEX_H407, MIKROE_QUAIL,
GARATRONIC_PYBSTICK26_F411, STM32H73B3I_DK. A bug was fixed in the SPI
driver where a SPI transfer could fail if the CYW43 WiFi driver was also
active at the same time.
On the windows port the help() function has been enabled, and support for
build variants added, to match the unix port.
The zephyr port upgraded Zephyr to v2.7.0.
The change in code size since the previous release for various ports is
(absolute and percentage change in the text section):
bare-arm: -1520 -2.605%
minimal x86: -2256 -1.531%
unix x64: -457 -0.089%
unix nanbox: -925 -0.204%
stm32: +312 +0.079% PYBV10
cc3200: -176 -0.096%
esp8266: +532 +0.076% GENERIC
esp32: +27096 +1.820% GENERIC

rp2: +9904 +2.051% PICO
samd: +35332 +33.969% ADAFRUIT_ITSYBITSY_M4_EXPRESS
The changes that dominate these numbers are:
- bare-arm, minimal: use of new MICROPY_CONFIG_ROM_LEVEL_MINIMUM option and
subsequent disabling of remaining optional features
- unix, cc3200, nrf: general code size reductions of the core
- stm32: performance improvements, addition of platform module
- esp8266: enabling f-strings
- esp32: use of -O2 instead of -Os
- rp2: machine.I2S and other new hardware features
- samd: filesystem support and other new hardware features

This commit removes all parts of code associated with the existing
MICROPY_OPT_CACHE_MAP_LOOKUP_IN_BYTECODE optimisation option, including the
-mcache-lookup-bc option to mpy-cross.
This feature originally provided a significant performance boost for Unix,
but wasn't able to be enabled for MCU targets (due to frozen bytecode), and
added significant extra complexity to generating and distributing .mpy
files.
The equivalent performance gain is now provided by the combination of
MICROPY_OPT_LOAD_ATTR_FAST_PATH and MICROPY_OPT_MAP_LOOKUP_CACHE (which has
been enabled on the unix port in the previous commit).
It's hard to provide precise performance numbers, but tests have been run
on a wide variety of architectures (x86-64, ARM Cortex, Aarch64, RISC-V,
xtensa) and they all generally agree on the qualitative improvements seen
by the combination of MICROPY_OPT_LOAD_ATTR_FAST_PATH and
MICROPY_OPT_MAP_LOOKUP_CACHE.
For example, on a "quiet" Linux x64 environment (i3-5010U @ 2.10GHz) the
change from CACHE_MAP_LOOKUP_IN_BYTECODE, to LOAD_ATTR_FAST_PATH combined
with MAP_LOOKUP_CACHE is:

This shows that the new optimisations are at least as good as the existing
inline-bytecode-caching, and are sometimes much better (because the new
ones apply caching to a wider variety of map lookups).
The new optimisations can also benefit code generated by the native
emitter, because they apply to the runtime rather than the generated code.
The improvement for the native emitter when LOAD_ATTR_FAST_PATH and
MAP_LOOKUP_CACHE are enabled is (same Linux environment as above):

In summary, compared to MICROPY_OPT_CACHE_MAP_LOOKUP_IN_BYTECODE, the new
MICROPY_OPT_LOAD_ATTR_FAST_PATH and MICROPY_OPT_MAP_LOOKUP_CACHE options:
- are simpler;
- take less code size;
- are faster (generally);
- work with code generated by the native emitter;
- can be used on embedded targets with a small and constant RAM overhead;
- allow the same .mpy bytecode to run on all targets.
See #7680 for further discussion. And see also #7653 for a discussion
about simplifying mpy-cross options.

After discussing with danh, I noticed that `a/**/b` would not match `a/b`.
After correcting this and re-running "pre-commit run --all", additional
files were reindented, including the codeformat script itself.
The "word" referred to by BYTES_PER_WORD is actually the size of mp_obj_t
which is not always the same as the size of a pointer on the target
architecture. So rename this config value to better reflect what it
measures, and also prefix it with MP_.
For uses of BYTES_PER_WORD in setting the stack limit this has been
changed to sizeof(void *), because the stack usually grows with
machine-word sized values (eg an nlr_buf_t has many machine words in it).

Change mp_uint_t to size_t to match the mp_print_strn_t function prototype.
This fixes a compiler warning when mp_uint_t and size_t are not the same
size.
mp_compile no longer takes an emit_opt argument, rather this setting is now
provided by the global default_emit_opt variable.
Now, when -X emit=native is passed as a command-line option, the emitter
will be set for all compiled modules (included imports), not just the
top-level script.
In the future there could be a way to also set this variable from a script.
Fixes issue #4267.
Header files that are considered internal to the py core and should not
normally be included directly are:
py/nlr.h - internal nlr configuration and declarations
py/bc0.h - contains bytecode macro definitions
py/runtime0.h - contains basic runtime enums
Instead, the top-level header files to include are one of:
py/obj.h - includes runtime0.h and defines everything to use the
mp_obj_t type
py/runtime.h - includes mpstate.h and hence nlr.h, obj.h, runtime0.h,
and defines everything to use the general runtime support functions
Additional, specific headers (eg py/objlist.h) can be included if needed.
This is a fix for https://github.com/micropython/micropython/issues/2209:
by default a file created using open() uses text translation mode so writing
\n to it will result in the file having \r\n. This is obviously problematic
for binary .mpy files, so provide functions for setting the open mode
and use binary mode in mpy-cross' main().
.mpy files contain the name of the source file that they were compiled
from. This patch adds a way to change this name to an arbitrary string,
specified on the command line with the -s option. The default is to use
the full name of the input filename.
This new -s option is useful to strip off a leading directory name so
that mpy-tool.py can freeze packages.
