299bc62586 all: Unify header guard usage.
The code conventions suggest using header guards, but do not define how
those should look like and instead point to existing files. However, not
all existing files follow the same scheme, sometimes omitting header guards
altogether, sometimes using non-standard names, making it easy to
accidentally pick a "wrong" example.

This commit ensures that all header files of the MicroPython project (that
were not simply copied from somewhere else) follow the same pattern, that
was already present in the majority of files, especially in the py folder.

The rules are as follows.

Naming convention:
* start with the words MICROPY_INCLUDED
* contain the full path to the file
* replace special characters with _

In addition, there are no empty lines before #ifndef, between #ifndef and
one empty line before #endif. #endif is followed by a comment containing
the name of the guard macro.

py/grammar.h cannot use header guards by design, since it has to be
included multiple times in a single C file. Several other files also do not
need header guards as they are only used internally and guaranteed to be
included only once:
* MICROPY_MPHALPORT_H
* mpconfigboard.h
* mpconfigport.h
* mpthreadport.h
* pin_defs_*.h
* qstrdefs*.h

05a4859585 stmhal: Implement a proper thread scheduler.
This patch changes the threading implementation from simple round-robin
with busy waits on mutexs, to proper scheduling whereby threads that are
waiting on a mutex are only scheduled when the mutex becomes available.

882ec01e42 stmhal: Initial implementation of multithreading, currently disabled.
This patch brings the _thread module to stmhal/pyboard.  There is a very
simple round-robin thread scheduler, which is disabled if there is only
one thread (for efficiency when threading is not used).

The scheduler currently switches threads at a rate of 250Hz using the
systick timer and the pend-SV interrupt.

The GIL is disabled so one must be careful to use lock objects to prevent
concurrent access of objects.

The threading is disabled by default, one can enabled it with the config
option MICROPY_PY_THREAD to test it out.
