.. via a peripheral known as the "MQS" (medium quality sound). It uses an
~192kHz PWM signal to generate audio. It sounds OK on a small speaker with
no amplifier. There's a small pop when starting/stopping audio, as is
typical.
tested on metro m7 (green prototype version) with max98357a i2s amplifier and the following test code:
```py
import board
import time
import digitalio
from audiobusio import I2SOut
from audiocore import RawSample
from microcontroller import pin
from ulab import numpy as np
n = np.array(np.sin(np.linspace(0, np.pi*2, 218, endpoint=False)) * 200, dtype=np.int16)
print(n)
r = RawSample(n, sample_rate=8000, channel_count=2)
def main():
with digitalio.DigitalInOut(board.LED) as l:
l.switch_to_output(True)
value = False
while True:
with I2SOut(pin.GPIO_06, pin.GPIO_07, pin.GPIO_04) as i:
time.sleep(.01)
l.value = value = not value
i.play(r, loop=True)
print(i.playing)
time.sleep(.5)
i.stop()
print("STOPPED")
print(i.playing)
time.sleep(.5)
i.play(r, loop=True)
print(i.playing)
print("PLAY AGAIN")
time.sleep(.5)
time.sleep(1)
```
Only stereo, 16-bit, raw samples were tested; the sample rate is actually fixed
at 48kHz in the core right now. There is more to do, but the basics work.

* Enable dcache for OCRAM where the VM heap lives.
* Add CIRCUITPY_SWO_TRACE for pushing program counters out over the
SWO pin via the ITM module in the CPU. Exempt some functions from
instrumentation to reduce traffic and allow inlining.
* Place more functions in ITCM to handle errors using code in RAM-only
and speed up CP.
* Use SET and CLEAR registers for digitalio. The SDK does read, mask
and write.
* Switch to 2MiB reserved for CircuitPython code. Up from 1MiB.
* Run USB interrupts during flash erase and write.
* Allow storage writes from CP if the USB drive is disabled.
* Get perf bench tests running on CircuitPython and increase timeouts
so it works when instrumentation is active.
- define CIRCUITPY_BUILD_EXTENSIONS to predefined values
- set CIRCUITPY_BUILD_EXTENSIONS in port and board config
- reuse the support matrix "get_settings_from_makefile" to get it
- move the existing port and board specific values
- remove the C3 specific board values because it's not the default
- update build_release_files.py to use get_settings_from_makefile
Passing in a PWMOut still works but is deprecated. It will be
removed in CircuitPython 8.0.0
This also switches STM32 timer indices and channel indices to
0-based in our pin data rather than `- 1` everywhere. The latter is
more bug prone.
Most of the way for #3264
Tested on Metro M0, Metro M4, Feather S2, Feather nRF52840, Feather
STM32F4 and Arduino RP2040.
Since Actions passed on the previous commit, where this computed value
was checked against the specified value (if any), this is no net change,
except that we no longer need to specify it for particular boards or
ports.
Introduces a way to place CircuitPython code and data into
tightly coupled memory (TCM) which is accessible by the CPU in a
single cycle. It also frees up room in the corresponding cache for
intermittent data. Loading from external flash is slow!
The data cache is also now enabled.
Adds support for the iMX RT 1021 chip. Adds three new boards:
* iMX RT 1020 EVK
* iMX RT 1060 EVK
* Teensy 4.0
Related to #2492, #2472 and #2477. Fixes#2475.
