Damien George 22b2265053 py/parse: Improve constant folding to operate on small and big ints.
Constant folding in the parser can now operate on big ints, whatever
their representation.  This is now possible because the parser can create
parse nodes holding arbitrary objects.  For the case of small ints the
folding is still efficient in RAM because the folded small int is stored
inplace in the parse node.

Adds 48 bytes to code size on Thumb2 architecture.  Helps reduce heap
usage because more constants can be computed at compile time, leading to
a smaller parse tree, and most importantly means that the constants don't
have to be computed at runtime (perhaps more than once).  Parser will now
be a little slower when folding due to calls to runtime to do the
arithmetic.

This directory contains tests for various functionality areas of MicroPython.
To run all stable tests, run "run-tests" script in this directory.

Tests of capabilities not supported on all platforms should be written
to check for the capability being present. If it is not, the test
should merely output 'SKIP' followed by the line terminator, and call
sys.exit() to raise SystemExit, instead of attempting to test the
missing capability. The testing framework (run-tests in this
directory, test_main.c in qemu_arm) recognizes this as a skipped test.

There are a few features for which this mechanism cannot be used to
condition a test. The run-tests script uses small scripts in the
feature_check directory to check whether each such feature is present,
and skips the relevant tests if not.

When creating new tests, anything that relies on float support should go in the 
float/ subdirectory.  Anything that relies on import x, where x is not a built-in
module, should go in the import/ subdirectory.
