Motivation is optimizing handling of various constructs as well as
understanding which constructs are more efficient in MicroPython.

Results are wildly unexpected. For example, "optimization" of range
iteration into while loop makes it twice as slow. Generally, the more
bytecodes, the slower the code.
This will work if MICROPY_DEBUG_PRINTERS is defined, which is only for
unix/windows ports. This makes it convenient to user uPy normally, but
easily get bytecode dump on the spot if needed, without constant recompiles
back and forth.
TODO: Add more useful debug output, adjust verbosity level on which
specifically bytecode dump happens.
Changed pyb.accel() and pyb.time() to the new pyb.Accel() object and pyb.millis() function.
Also shortened the loop so the writing is finished before the USB connection messes things up.
Blanket wide to all .c and .h files. Some files originating from ST are
difficult to deal with (license wise) so it was left out of those.
Also merged modpyb.h, modos.h, modstm.h and modtime.h in stmhal/.
By default mingw outputs 3 digits instead of the standard 2 so all float
tests using printf fail. Using setenv at the start of the program fixes this.
To accomodate calling platform specific initialization a
MICROPY_MAIN_INIT_FUNC macro is used which is called in mp_init()
This renames MICROPY_HW_HAS_WLAN to MICROPY_HW_ENABLE_CC3K (since it's a
driver, not a board feature) and wraps all CC3000 code in this #if.
It's disabled for all boards.
In tests/pyb is now a suite of tests that tests the pyb module on the
pyboard. They include expected output files because we can't run
CPython on the pyboard to compare against.
run-tests script has now been updated to allow pyboard tests to be run.
Just pass the option --pyboard. This runs all basic, float and pyb
tests. Note that float/math-fun.py currently fails because not all math
functions are implemented in stmhal/.
The mingw port used _fullpath() until now, but the behaviour is not exactly
the same as realpath()'s on unix; major difference being that it doesn't
return an error for non-existing files, which would bypass main's error
checking and bail out without any error message.
Also realpath() will return forward slashes only since main() relies on that.
