v1.18

Boosted performance, board.json metadata, more mimxrt, rp2, samd feat…

…ures

This release of MicroPython sees a boost to the overall performance of the
VM and runtime.  This is achieved by the addition of an optional cache to
speed up general hash table lookups, as well as a fast path in the VM for
the LOAD_ATTR opcode on instance types.  The new configuration options are
MICROPY_OPT_MAP_LOOKUP_CACHE and MICROPY_OPT_LOAD_ATTR_FAST_PATH.  As part
of this improvement the MICROPY_OPT_CACHE_MAP_LOOKUP_IN_BYTECODE option has
been removed, which provided a similar map caching mechanism but with the
cache stored in the bytecode, which made it not useful on bare metal ports.
The new mechanism is measured to be at least as good as the old one,
applies to more map lookups, has a constant RAM overhead, and applies to
native code as well as bytecode.

These performance options are enabled on the esp32, mimxrt, rp2, stm32 and
unix ports.  For esp32 and mimxrt some code is also moved to RAM to further
boost performance.  On stm32, performance increases by about 20% for
benchmarks that are heavy on name lookups, like misc_pystone.py and
misc_raytrace.py.  On esp32 performance can increase by 2-3x, and on mimxrt
it is up to 6x.

All boards in all ports now have a board.json metadata file, which is used
to automatically build firmware and generate a webpage for that board
(among other possibilities).  Auto-build scripts have been added for this
purpose and they build all esp32, mimxrt, rp2, samd and stm32 boards.  The
generated output is available at https://micropython.org/download.

Support for FROZEN_DIR and FROZEN_MPY_DIR has been deprecated for some time
and was finally removed in this release.  Instead of these, FROZEN_MANIFEST
can be used.  The io.resource_stream() function is also removed, replaced
by the pure Python version in micropython-lib.

The search order for importing frozen Python modules is now controlled by
the ".frozen" entry in sys.path.  This string is added by default in the
second position in sys.path.  User code should adjust sys.path depending on
the desired behaviour.  Putting ".frozen" first in sys.path will speed up
importing frozen modules.

A bug in multiple precision integers with bitwise of -0 was fixed in commit
2c139bb.

The platform module has been added to allow querying the compiler and
underlying SDK/HAL/libc version.  This is enabled on esp32, mimxrt and
stm32 ports.

The mpremote tool now supports seek, flush, mkdir and rmdir on PC-mounted
filesystems.  And a help command has been added.

The documentation has seen many additions and improvements thanks (for a
second time) to the Google Season of Docs project.  The rp2 documentation
now includes a reference for PIO assembly instructions, a PIO quick
reference and a PIO tutorial.  The random and stm modules have been
documented, along with sys.settrace, manifest.py files and mpremote.  There
is also now more detail about the differences between MicroPython and
standard Python 3.5 and above.

The esp32 port sees support for ESP32-S3 SoCs, and new boards GENERIC_S3,
ESP32_S2_WROVER, LOLIN_S2_MINI, LOLIN_S2_PICO and UM_FEATHERS2NEO.  The PWM
driver has been improved and now supports all PWM timers and channels, and
the duty_u16() and duty_ns() methods, and it keeps the duty constant when
changing frequency.  The machine.bitstream() function has been improved to
use RMT, with an option to select the original bit-banging implementation.

The mimxrt port gained new hardware features: SDRAM and SD card support, as
well as network integration with a LAN driver.  The machine.WDT class was
added along with the machine.reset_cause(), machine.soft_reset(),
machine.unique_id() add machine.bitstream() functions.  DHT sensor support
was added, and f-strings were enabled.

The rp2 port now has support for networking, and bluetooth using NimBLE.
The Nina-W10 WiFi/BT driver is fully integrated and supported by the new
Arduino Nano RP2040 connect board.  I2S protocol support is added along
with a machine.bitstream() driver and DHT sensor support.  The PWM driver
had a bug fix with the accuracy of setting/getting the frequency, and the
duty value is now retained when changing the frequency.

On the samd port there is now support for the internal flash being a block
device, and for filesystems and the os module.  Pin and LED classes have
been implemented.  There are more time functions, more Python features
enabled, and the help() function is added.  SEEED_WIO_TERMINAL and
SEEED_XIAO board definitions are now available.

The stm32 port now has support for F427, F479 and H7A3(Q)/H7B3(Q) MCUs, and
new board definitions for VCC_GND_H743VI, OLIMEX_H407, MIKROE_QUAIL,
GARATRONIC_PYBSTICK26_F411, STM32H73B3I_DK.  A bug was fixed in the SPI
driver where a SPI transfer could fail if the CYW43 WiFi driver was also
active at the same time.

On the windows port the help() function has been enabled, and support for
build variants added, to match the unix port.

The zephyr port upgraded Zephyr to v2.7.0.

The change in code size since the previous release for various ports is
(absolute and percentage change in the text section):

       bare-arm:  -1520  -2.605%
    minimal x86:  -2256  -1.531%
       unix x64:   -457  -0.089%
    unix nanbox:   -925  -0.204%
          stm32:   +312  +0.079% PYBV10
         cc3200:   -176  -0.096%
        esp8266:   +532  +0.076% GENERIC
          esp32: +27096  +1.820% GENERIC
            nrf:   -212  -0.121% pca10040
            rp2:  +9904  +2.051% PICO
           samd: +35332 +33.969% ADAFRUIT_ITSYBITSY_M4_EXPRESS

The changes that dominate these numbers are:
- bare-arm, minimal: use of new MICROPY_CONFIG_ROM_LEVEL_MINIMUM option and
  subsequent disabling of remaining optional features
- unix, cc3200, nrf: general code size reductions of the core
- stm32: performance improvements, addition of platform module
- esp8266: enabling f-strings
- esp32: use of -O2 instead of -Os
- rp2: machine.I2S and other new hardware features
- samd: filesystem support and other new hardware features

F-strings, new machine.I2S class, ESP32-C3 support and LEGO_HUB_NO6 b…

…oard

This release of MicroPython adds support for f-strings (PEP-498), with a
few limitations compared to normal Python.  F-strings are essentially
syntactic sugar for "".format() and make formatting strings a lot more
convenient.  Other improvements to the core runtime include pretty printing
OSError when it has two arguments (an errno code and a string), scheduling
of KeyboardInterrupt on the main thread, and support for a single argument
to the optimised form of StopIteration.

In the machine module a new I2S class has been added, with support for
esp32 and stm32 ports.  This provides a consistent API for transmit and
receive of audio data in blocking, non-blocking and asyncio-based
operation.  Also, the json module has support for the "separators" argument
in the dump and dumps functions, and framebuf now includes a way to blit
between frame buffers of different formats using a palette.  A new,
portable machine.bitstream function is also added which can output a stream
of bits with configurable timing, and is used as the basis for driving
WS2812 LEDs in a common way across ports.

There has been some restructuring of the repository directory layout, with
all third-party code now in the lib/ directory.  And a new top-level
directory shared/ has been added with first-party code that was previously
in lib/ moved there.

The docs have seen further improvement with enhancements and additions to
the rp2 parts, as well as a new quick reference for the zephyr port.
The terms master/slave have been replaced with controller/peripheral,
mainly relating to I2C and SPI usage.  And u-module references have been
replaced with just the module name without the u-prefix to help clear up
the intended usage of modules in MicroPython.

For the esp8266 and esp32 ports, hidden networks are now included in WLAN
scan results.  On the esp32 the RMT class is enhanced with idle_level and
write_pulses modes.  There is initial support for ESP32-C3 chips with
GENERIC_C3 and GENERIC_C3_USB boards.

The javascript port has had its Makefile and garbage collector
implementation reworked so it compiles and runs with latest the Emscripten
using asyncify.

The mimxrt port sees the addition of hardware I2C and SPI support, as well
as some additional methods to the machine module.  There is also support
for Hyperflash chips.

The nrf port now has full VFS storage support, enables source-line on
traceback, and has .mpy features consistent with other ports.

For the rp2 port there is now more configurability for boards, and more
boards added.

The stm32 port has a new LEGO_HUB_NO6 board definition with detailed
information how to get this LEGO Hub running stock MicroPython.  There is
also now support to change the CPU frequency on STM32WB MCUs.  And USBD_xxx
descriptor options have been renamed to MICROPY_HW_USB_xxx.

v1.16

New mpremote tool, and the mimxrt port gets Pin, ADC, UART, RTC and VFS

This release of MicroPython includes a new command-line tool called
"mpremote", which is intended to be the main way to remotely control a
MicroPython-based device from the command line.  It features a serial
terminal, filesystem access, support to mount a local directory on the
remote device, and a macro language to define custom commands.  This tool
can be installed from PyPI via "pip3 install mpremote", and it works on
Linux, Windows and Mac.  As part of this, improvements were made to
pyboard.py including opening serial ports in exclusive mode to more easily
manage multiple devices.

In the Python core, OSError exceptions now support the ".errno" attribute,
and an option was added to compile MicroPython without error messages to
further reduce code size where needed.  The REPL was improved so that it
does not tab-complete private methods (those starting with underscore, if
no underscore has been typed yet), and it also now tab completes built-in
module names after "import" is typed.

There has been a minor breaking change to a relative import exception: what
was previously a ValueError was changed to ImportError, following the same
change in CPython.  See commit 53519e3.

In the extmod components, uctypes has a fix for the size and offset
calculation for ARRAY of FLOAT32, uhashlib now raises an exception if a
hash is reused after digest is called, and urandom supports passing 0 to
getrandbits (following the CPython change).  In uasyncio, the readinto
method is added to the Stream class, and two race conditions were fixed:
one with start_server and wait_closed, and the other with cancelling a
task waiting on finished task; see de2e081
and 514bf1a respectively.

The esp32 port now supports specifying FROZEN_MANIFEST with new CMake build
system, has NeoPixel support on GPIO32 and GPIO33, network.LAN support in
IDF v4.1 and above, and a new "reconnects" option in the WLAN STA interface
to configure how many (if any) reconnection attempts are made if the WiFi
goes down.

Many features have been added to the mimxrt port, including: VFS filesystem
support with internal flash storage, Pin, Pin.irq and ADC support, UART,
SoftI2C and SoftSPI bus support, Timer and RTC classes, and floating point
numbers.

The rp2 port now has the machine.RTC class to configure the RTC, as well as
new board definition files for SparkFun's Thing Plus RP2040 and Pro Micro
boards.

The stm32 port now supports static soft timers with a C-based callback, and
mboot has been made more configurable, in particular the LEDs and reset
mode selection can now be fully customised by a board.  Two new boards have
been added: VCC_GND_F407VE and VCC_GND_F407ZG.  A bug fix was made to the
SDIO driver to make sure DMA doesn't turn off mid-transfer; this affected
WLAN operation when certain SPI buses were being used.  See commit
a96afae for details.  Pin configuration of
UART has been modified so pull-up is now configured only on RX and CTS, not
TX and RTS; see 748339b.  The USB_VCP
class has a new irq method to set a callback on USB data RX events.  The
Ethernet driver now supports low-power mode, and has a fix so the link
status is reported correctly.

On the zephyr port, scheduled callbacks are now run at idle REPL and during
sleeps, and there is an initial ubluetooth module which supports BLE
scanning and advertising.  Configuration is provided for the nucleo_wb55rg
board.

What follows is a detailed list of changes, generated from the git commit
history, and organised into sections.

v1.15

The esp32 port moves to CMake and has S2 support, new features for rp2

This release of MicroPython adds general support in the core for using
CMake as a build system.  The rp2 port is consolidated to use the new
CMake files, and the esp32 and zephyr ports have switched to build as
pure CMake projects.  These three ports have SDKs which are built around
CMake and this change should make them easier to maintain and use.

As part of this work, CMake based ports now have support for user C
modules. Authors of user C modules should now provide both .mk and .cmake
configuration files (following the documentation and examples).

A bug was fixed in the multiple precision integer library, an arithmetic
overflow in the long division routine.  Prior to this fix certain integer
divisions would take excessive time and produce incorrect results.  See
commit 0a59938 for details.  There was
also a fix for regular expressions, to check and report byte overflow
errors when compiling expressions.  See commit
172fb52.

In the uasyncio library, a new MicroPython extension has been added,
ThreadSafeFlag, which can be set from outside the asyncio event loop,
such as other threads, IRQs or scheduler context.  It allows preemptive
code like IRQs to signal asyncio tasks, which are by nature cooperative
(non-preemptive).  asyncio.current_task() has also been added, with the
same semantics as CPython.

As mentioned above, the esp32 port has switched to a full CMake-based
project, and traditional make capability has been removed (although a
simple helper Makefile remains to keep top-level build/deploy commands
consistent with other ports).  Because of the move to CMake, network.LAN
support has been removed, to be added back in the future (use a prior
release if LAN is needed).  Basic support for Non-Volatile-Storage is added
to the esp32 module.  And there is also preliminary support for ESP32S2
SoCs and USB, with a GENERIC_S2 board defined.

On the mimxrt and samd ports, USB CDC TX handling has been fixed so that it
now works reliably.

The rp2 port has had many more core Python features enabled, along with the
enabling of ubinascii.crc32(), the uos.VfsFat and machine.Signal classes,
and the uerrno module.  uos.urandom() has been added and machine.freq() can
now change the CPU clock frequency.  The machine.UART class now has support
for timeout/timeout_char, inverted TX/RX lines, and buffered TX/RX with
configurable sized buffers.  For PIO, StateMachine has added restart(),
rx_fifo() and tx_fifo() helper functions, and support for FIFO joining.
There is now support for user C modules (via CMake) and for building
different board configurations (the default remains the PICO board).  USB
reliability has been improved.

For the stm32 port, there is now more configuration options for boards,
such as USBD VID/PID and fine-grained selection of modules.  The UART class
now supports LPUART on L0, L4, H7 and WB MCUs.  WB MCUs have a fix for a
race condition accessing the BLE ACL free buffer list, and a workaround for
a low-level BLE bug.

The zephyr port has been updated to use zephyr v2.5.0, and now builds
MicroPython as a CMake target.

What follows is a detailed list of changes, generated from the git commit

New rp2 port, BLE pairing, bonding and l2cap APIs, and docs on internals

This release of MicroPython sees the addition of a new "rp2" port for the
new Raspberry Pi RP2040 microcontroller, a dual-core Cortex-M0+ MCU with
programmable IO.  This port is built on the pico-sdk and MicroPython sits
very close to the bare metal.  The programmable IO is supported via the
@rp2.asm_pio decorator which allows writing inline assembler to be run on
the PIO state machines.

The ubluetooth module has seen significant improvements, fixes and
additions.  BLE events are now synchronous on unix and stm32 so that user
Python callbacks are called directly from the BLE stack (from NimBLE).
This helps with the new pairing and bonding API.  There is also a new l2cap
API for much faster raw data transfer between BLE devices.

Many new sections have been added to the existing "Developing and building
MicroPython" chapter to make it all about the internals of MicroPython,
including details about the MicroPython compiler, and how to port to a new
system.  This documentation work was done as part of Google's Season of
Docs 2020.

The native emitter and inline assembler now fully support ARMv6M, for
Cortex-M0+ CPUs.  There is also support added for C++ user modules on
unix, stm32 and esp32.  And reproducible builds can now be achieved by
setting SOURCE_DATE_EPOCH in the shell build environment.  Qstr
preprocessing is now done in parallel to speed up building, and there is
a new tools/ci.sh script with all functionality to run the continuous
integration tests.

The machine.I2C and machine.SPI classes have been modified so they no
longer construct both software- and hardware-based peripheral instances.
Such construction is now split to explicit soft and non-soft types by the
introduction of machine.SoftI2C and machine.SoftSPI classes.  See below for
more information.

The wait_for function in uasyncio now handles cancellation correctly,
VfsLfs supports mounting in read-only mode, and the urandom module will
randomise its seed on import on stm32, esp8266, esp32 and rp2 ports.

A new raw-paste mode is added to the REPL which includes flow control
between the device and host, as well as a mechanism where the device pulls
in data from the host as it parses the input.  This makes pasting code
faster, more reliable and use less memory.  This feature is supported on
all ports that have a raw REPL and still supports previous REPL behaviour.
See the documentation for more detail on this raw-paste mode.

The stm32 port sees improved rfcore support for WB MCUs, including flash
locking for writes when BLE is active, and a script for automatic update of
FUS/WS firmware.  New hooks are added for boards to configure the top level
behaviour of the system in stm32_main, and there is now support for
Ethernet on H7 processors.  Mboot now allows signed and encrypted firmware
updates.

Breaking changes in this release are:

- The "sys" module is renamed to "usys".  Ports that do not enable module
  weak links must replace "import sys" with "import usys as sys".
  See commit 40ad8f1

- machine.I2C and machine.SPI constructors are changed when using
  software-based I2C and SPI.  Code that constructed I2C/SPI peripherals in
  the following way will need to be changed (or else their use will emit a
  warning which will eventually be an error):

    machine.I2C(-1, ...)            ->  machine.SoftI2C(...)
    machine.I2C(scl=scl, sda=sda)   ->  machine.SoftI2C(scl=scl, sda=sda)

    machine.SPI(-1, ...)            ->  machine.SoftSPI(...)
    machine.SPI(sck=sck, mosi=mosi, miso=miso)
                        ->  machine.SoftSPI(sck=sck, mosi=mosi, miso=miso)

  Code which uses machine.I2C and machine.SPI classes to access hardware
  peripherals does not need to change.
  See commits 39d50d1 and
  98182a9

- In ubluetooth, the BLE.irq() method now has positional only arguments.
  See commit 6a6a5f9

- In ubluetooth, arguments passed to the BLE.irq() callback that were
  previously bytes objects are now memoryview objects.
  See commit 81f2162

history, and organised into sections.

New uasyncio module, code formatting, BTstack bindings with unix support

This release of MicroPython includes a new implementation of the uasyncio
module which aims to be more compatible with CPython's asyncio module.  The
main change is to use a Task object for each coroutine, allowing more
flexibility to queue tasks in various places, eg the main run loop, tasks
waiting on events, locks or other tasks.  It no longer requires
pre-allocating a fixed queue size for the main run loop.  A pairing heap is
used to queue Tasks, and the core is optionally implemented in C.

Most code in this repository is now auto-formatted using uncrustify for C
code and Black for Python code.  The tools/codeformat.py script is used to
apply this formatting.  Options for uncrustify were chosen to match as
closely as possible the existing C style, but there were nevertheless quite
a few changes to make the code style consistent.

BlueKitchen BTstack bindings have been added for the ubluetooth module, as
an optional alternative to the NimBLE stack.  The unix port can now be
built with BLE support using these bindings, which works with USB Bluetooth
adaptors (this feature is enabled by default on the dev and coverage
variants).

Other Bluetooth additions include: new events for service/characteristic/
descriptor discovery complete; new events for read done and indicate
acknowledgement; and support for active scanning in BLE.gap_scan().  See
also below for breaking changes to the ubluetooth BLE API.

PEP 526 has been implemented which adds new syntax for variable
annotations, such as "x:int = 1".  PEP 572 has also been implemented, which
adds the ":=" operator for assignment expressions, such as "if x := 1:...".

The whole code base now supports compressing error messages (those strings
used as arguments to exception instances) using a "common word" scheme,
which can be used to reduce code size.

Other new features include: support for non-boolean results for equality
and inequality tests; the addition of the micropython.heap_locked()
function to test the state of the heap; binary operations for viper uint
operands in the native emitter; and mtime support on littlefs v2
filesystems (which can be disabled if needed).

There has been an important bug fix when importing ARM machine code from
an .mpy file: the system now correctly tracks the executable memory
allocated to the machine code so this memory is not reclaimed by the
garbage collector.

For testing, a multi-instance test runner has been added (see
tests/run-multitests.py) which allows running a synchronised test across
two or more MicroPython targets.  This is currently used for network and
BLE tests that require communication between multiple devices.

In the unix port different builds are now organised into build variants,
analogous to boards on bare-metal.  And PEP 475 has been implemented which
retries syscalls failing with EINTR.

The stm32 port sees improved support for STM32WB MCUs, with ADC, SPI and
DMA support, along with support in mboot for these MCUs.  Mboot also adds
optional littlefs support.

The esp8266 port now includes three generic board definitions:
GENERIC_512K, GENERIC_1M and GENERIC, with the latter for modules with 2M
or more of flash.  This port also changed the default filesystem to
littlefs, and no longer supports hard pin IRQs.  See breaking changes below
for more details.

The esp32 port now enables Bluetooth support (via NimBLE) on both IDF v3
and v4 builds.  It also changes the default filesystem from FAT to littlefs
v2 (but existing devices with FAT filesystems will continue to work without
change).

There is also a new mimxrt port which targets NXP i.MX RT series CPUs.

Breaking changes in this release are:

- async-for no longer await's on the result of __aiter__.  The __aiter__
  method should return an async-iterable object but is not itself
  awaitable.
  See commit 37e1b5c

- In ubluetooth, the IRQ event constants have all changed value (from a
  bitfield to a sequential integer) and Python code should be updated
  accordingly by replacing the const definitions with the new ones, which
  can be found at
  https://docs.micropython.org/en/latest/library/ubluetooth.html#ubluetooth.BLE.irq
  See also commit e6881f0

- In ubluetooth, the IRQ data for the _IRQ_SCAN_RESULT event has had the
  "connectable" entry changed to "adv_type".  The existing connectable
  value was a boolean and True now becomes 0x00, False becomes 0x02.
  See commit dd0bc26

- For esp8266, the default filesystem has changed from FAT to littlefs v2.
  And the flash layout of the firmware and filesystem has changed to give
  more space to the firmware and frozen bytecode.  When upgrading an
  existing esp8266 device the filesystem will be reformatted so files
  should be backed up first.
  See commit e0905e8

- For esp8266, machine.Pin no longer supports configuring a pin IRQ with
  "hard=True" (because the interrupt handling code is moved to iRAM).
  Existing code using pin IRQs should remove any "hard=True" argument.
  See commit 0bd58a5

- For the unix port, binaries are renamed to micropython-variant (no longer
  micropython_variant).
  See commit 977b532

What follows is a detailed list of changes, generated from the git commit
history, and organised into sections.

v1.12

PYBD boards, BLE and littlefs, dynamic native modules, samd and powerpc

This release sees a reduction in overall bytecode size due to compression
of the bytecode prelude, saving 7 bytes of bytecode per function for
roughly 80% of functions.  The bytecode opcode values are also redefined to
group them based on their argument size and format.  Support is also added
for the matrix multiplication operator "@" (PEP 465).

The .mpy file format moved to version 5 to support the new bytecode
encoding, and added support for relocation of native machine code, along
with separate rodata and BSS sections.  This allows a MicroPython system to
import dynamic native modules, .mpy files that are generated from C code.
Examples of this feature are provided in "examples/natmod/" and
documentation in "docs/develop/natmod.rst".

Some code-size saving optimisations were implemented leading to a reduction
in size of minimal firmware: bare-arm reduced by 584 bytes, minimal x86 by
5476 bytes (partly due to changed compiler optimisation flags) and minimal
ARM Thumb 2 by 1440 bytes (all measured with gcc 9.2.0).

A new mechanism to freeze scripts into firmware is provided - a frozen
manifest - whereby scripts to freeze are listed in a Python file (eg
manifest.py).  All ports are updated to use this new feature.

When weak module links are enabled (via MICROPY_MODULE_WEAK_LINKS) an
import will now automatically search for the built-in u-variant of a module
if the non-u-variant fails (eg searches for "ufoo" if "foo" fails), so
ports no longer provide an explicit list of these.  The unix and windows
ports now enable this feature.

A performance benchmarking test suite is added which can be used to compare
changes in absolute performance when optimising features, as well as
compare across different ports.  See "tests/run-perfbench.py".

Bluetooth (BLE only) support is added via the "ubluetooth" module and
provides the ability to implement the four BLE roles.  The BLE stack is
used is Mynewt Nimble and it currently runs on PYBD boards, STM32WB55 MCUs
and ESP32 boards.

Support for littlefs filesystems is added through the MicroPython VFS
interface, and it works on the unix, stm32, esp8266 and esp32 ports.

A new "machine.ADC.read_u16()" method is defined and implemented on stm32,
esp8266, esp32 and nrf ports, providing a consistent way to read an ADC
that returns a value in the range 0-65535.  This new method should be
preferred to the existing "ADC.read()" method.

The stm32 port sees support for the new PYBD range of pyboards which
include a fully integrated CYW43xx WiFi/BT chip.  USB is enhanced to
support VCP+MSC+HID mode and up to 3x simultaneous VCP interfaces.  Support
is also added for STM32WBxx MCUs including BLE.  There is a new machine.ADC
class which is compatible with other ports, along with a new machine.Timer
class that implements a software timer with millisecond resolution and
number of active timers only limited by RAM.  Support for littlefs is
available by default via uos.VfsLfs2.  Documentation for using littlefs is
found in "docs/reference/filesystem.rst".

The esp8266 port has switched to use per-board configurations and builds,
as well as the new frozen manifest feature.  It also has optional littlefs
support (requires a separate build).

The esp32 port has the following new features: native code generation,
machine.SDCard, hardware I2C, mDNS queries and responder, esp32.Partition,
esp32.RMT, BLE (requires IDF v4), and built-in support for VfsLfs2.  It has
switched to use per-board configurations and builds, and frozen manifests.
The default SSL output buffer is resized from 16kiB down to 4kiB to save
RAM.

There are new, minimal ports to Microchip SAMDxx microcontrollers, and
the bare metal PowerPC architecture.

A code-of-conduct based on the PSF's code is added in CODEOFCONDUCT.md.

The following new Git submodules are added: mbedtls, asf4, tinyusb,
mynewt-nimble.  And a new third-party library: littlefs.
