9b196cddab Remove mp_obj_type_t.methods entry and use .locals_dict instead.
Originally, .methods was used for methods in a ROM class, and
locals_dict for methods in a user-created class.  That distinction is
unnecessary, and we can use locals_dict for ROM classes now that we have
ROMable maps.

This removes an entry in the bloated mp_obj_type_t struct, saving a word
for each ROM object and each RAM object.  ROM objects that have a
methods table (now a locals_dict) need an extra word in total (removed
the methods pointer (1 word), no longer need the sentinel (2 words), but
now need an mp_obj_dict_t wrapper (4 words)).  But RAM objects save a
word because they never used the methods entry.

Overall the ROM usage is down by a few hundred bytes, and RAM usage is
down 1 word per user-defined type/class.

There is less code (no need to check 2 tables), and now consistent with
the way ROM modules have their tables initialised.

Efficiency is very close to equivaluent.

55baff4c9b Revamp qstrs: they now include length and hash.
Can now have null bytes in strings.  Can define ROM qstrs per port using
qstrdefsport.h

d99b05282d Change object representation from 1 big union to individual structs.
A big change.  Micro Python objects are allocated as individual structs
with the first element being a pointer to the type information (which
is itself an object).  This scheme follows CPython.  Much more flexible,
not necessarily slower, uses same heap memory, and can allocate objects
statically.

Also change name prefix, from py_ to mp_ (mp for Micro Python).
