Allowing passing keyword arguments to a native base's __init__, i.e.
`make_new` in the C code. Previously only positional arguments were
allowed.
The main trade-off in this commit is that every call to the native base's
`make_new` is now going to be preceded by a call to
`mp_map_init_fixed_table` even though most of what that does is unused and
instead it merely serves as a way to pass the number of keyword arguments.
Fixes issue #15465.

This commit adds a new `RingIO` type which exposes the internal ring-buffer
code for general use in Python programs. It has the stream interface
making it similar to `StringIO` and `BytesIO`, except `RingIO` has a fixed
buffer size and is automatically safe when reads and writes are in
different threads or an IRQ.
This new type is enabled at the "extra features" ROM level.

This replaces the previous QSTR_null entry in the globals dict which could
leak out to Python (e.g. via iteration of mod.__dict__) and could lead to

It results in smaller code size at the expense of turning a lookup into a

elements.

This makes it so that sub-packages are resolved relative to their parent's
`__path__`, rather than re-resolving each parent's filesystem path.
The previous behavior was that `import foo.bar` would first re-search
`sys.path` for `foo`, then use the resulting path to find `bar`.
For already-loaded and u-prefixed modules, because we no longer need to
build the path from level to level, we no longer unnecessarily search
the filesystem. This should improve startup time.
Explicitly makes the resolving process clear:
- Loaded modules are returned immediately without touching the filesystem.
- Exact-match of builtins are also returned immediately.
- Then the filesystem search happens.
- If that fails, then the weak-link handling is applied.
This maintains the existing behavior: if a user writes `import time` they
will get time.py if it exits, otherwise the built-in utime. Whereas `import
utime` will always return the built-in.
This also fixes a regression from a7fa18c203
where we search the filesystem for built-ins. It is now only possible to
override u-prefixed builtins. This will remove a lot of filesystem stats
at startup, as micropython-specific modules (e.g. `pyb`) will no longer
attempt to look at the filesystem.
Added several improvements to the comments and some minor renaming and
refactoring to make it clearer how the import mechanism works. Overall
code size diff is +56 bytes on STM32.

Unless MICROPY_OBJ_REPR == MICROPY_OBJ_REPR_D, these macros only work with
values and "->"/"." expressions as their sole argument. In other words,
the macros are broken with expressions which contain operations of lower
precedence than the cast operator.
Depending on situation, the old code either results in compiler error:
MP_OBJ_TO_PTR(flag ? o1 : o2) expands into "(void *)flag ? o1 : o2",
which some compiler configurations will reject (e.g. GCC -Wint-conversion
-Wint-to-pointer-cast -Werror)
Or in an incorrect address calculation:
For ptr declared as "uint8_t *" the MP_OBJ_FROM_PTR(ptr + off)
expands into ((mp_obj_t)ptr) + off, resulting in an obviously

The check for make_new (i.e. used to determine something's type) is now
more complicated due to the slot access. This commit changes the inlining
of a few frequently-used helpers to overall improve code size and
performance.
Instead of being an explicit field, it's now a slot like all the other
methods.
This is a marginal code size improvement because most types have a make_new
(100/138 on PYBV11), however it improves consistency in how types are
declared, removing the special case for make_new.

The goal here is to remove a slot (making way to turn make_new into a slot)
as well as reduce code size by the ~40 references to mp_identity_getiter
and mp_stream_unbuffered_iter.
This introduces two new type flags:
- MP_TYPE_FLAG_ITER_IS_ITERNEXT: This means that the "iter" slot in the
type is "iternext", and should use the identity getiter.
- MP_TYPE_FLAG_ITER_IS_CUSTOM: This means that the "iter" slot is a pointer
to a mp_getiter_iternext_custom_t instance, which then defines both
getiter and iternext.
And a third flag that is the OR of both, MP_TYPE_FLAG_ITER_IS_STREAM: This
means that the type should use the identity getiter, and
mp_stream_unbuffered_iter as iternext.
Finally, MP_TYPE_FLAG_ITER_IS_GETITER is defined as a no-op flag to give
the default case where "iter" is "getiter".

The existings mp_obj_type_t uses a sparse representation for slots for the
capability methods of the type (eg print, make_new). This commit adds a
compact slot-index representation. The basic idea is that where the
mp_obj_type_t struct used to have 12 pointer fields, it now has 12 uint8_t
indices, and a variable-length array of pointers. So in the best case (no
fields used) it saves 12x4-12=36 bytes (on a 32-bit machine) and in the
common case (three fields used) it saves 9x4-12=24 bytes.
Overall with all associated changes, this slot-index representation reduces
code size by 1000 to 3000 bytes on bare-metal ports. Performance is
marginally better on a few tests (eg about 1% better on misc_pystone.py and
misc_raytrace.py on PYBv1.1), but overall marginally worse by a percent or
so.

Commit d96cfd13e3 introduced a regression by breaking existing
users of mp_obj_is_type(.., &mp_obj_bool). This function (and associated
helpers like mp_obj_is_int()) have some specific nuances, and mistakes like
this one can happen again.
This commit adds mp_obj_is_exact_type() which behaves like the the old
mp_obj_is_type(). The new mp_obj_is_type() has the same prototype but it
attempts to statically assert that it's not called with types which should
be checked using mp_obj_is_type(). If called with any of these types: int,
str, bool, NoneType - it will cause a compilation error. Additional
checked types (e.g function types) can be added in the future.
Existing users of mp_obj_is_type() with the now "invalid" types, were
translated to use mp_obj_is_exact_type().
The use of MP_STATIC_ASSERT() is not bulletproof - usually GCC (and other
compilers) can't statically check conditions that are only known during
link-time (like variables' addresses comparison). However, in this case,
GCC is able to statically detect these conditions, probably because it's
the exact same object - `&mp_type_int == &mp_type_int` is detected.
Misuses of this function with runtime-chosen types (e.g:
`mp_obj_type_t *x = ...; mp_obj_is_type(..., x);` won't be detected. MSC
is unable to detect this, so we use MP_STATIC_ASSERT_NOT_MSC().
Compiling with this commit and without the fix for d96cfd13e3 shows
that it detects the problem.

Background: .mpy files are precompiled .py files, built using mpy-cross,
that contain compiled bytecode functions (and can also contain machine
code). The benefit of using an .mpy file over a .py file is that they are
faster to import and take less memory when importing. They are also
smaller on disk.
But the real benefit of .mpy files comes when they are frozen into the
firmware. This is done by loading the .mpy file during compilation of the
firmware and turning it into a set of big C data structures (the job of
mpy-tool.py), which are then compiled and downloaded into the ROM of a
device. These C data structures can be executed in-place, ie directly from
ROM. This makes importing even faster because there is very little to do,
and also means such frozen modules take up much less RAM (because their
bytecode stays in ROM).
The downside of frozen code is that it requires recompiling and reflashing
the entire firmware. This can be a big barrier to entry, slows down
development time, and makes it harder to do OTA updates of frozen code
(because the whole firmware must be updated).
This commit attempts to solve this problem by providing a solution that
sits between loading .mpy files into RAM and freezing them into the
firmware. The .mpy file format has been reworked so that it consists of
data and bytecode which is mostly static and ready to run in-place. If
these new .mpy files are located in flash/ROM which is memory addressable,
the .mpy file can be executed (mostly) in-place.
With this approach there is still a small amount of unpacking and linking
of the .mpy file that needs to be done when it's imported, but it's still
much better than loading an .mpy from disk into RAM (although not as good
as freezing .mpy files into the firmware).
The main trick to make static .mpy files is to adjust the bytecode so any
qstrs that it references now go through a lookup table to convert from
local qstr number in the module to global qstr number in the firmware.
That means the bytecode does not need linking/rewriting of qstrs when it's
loaded. Instead only a small qstr table needs to be built (and put in RAM)
at import time. This means the bytecode itself is static/constant and can
be used directly if it's in addressable memory. Also the qstr string data
in the .mpy file, and some constant object data, can be used directly.
Note that the qstr table is global to the module (ie not per function).
In more detail, in the VM what used to be (schematically):
qst = DECODE_QSTR_VALUE;
is now (schematically):
idx = DECODE_QSTR_INDEX;
qst = qstr_table[idx];
That allows the bytecode to be fixed at compile time and not need
relinking/rewriting of the qstr values. Only qstr_table needs to be linked
when the .mpy is loaded.
Incidentally, this helps to reduce the size of bytecode because what used
to be 2-byte qstr values in the bytecode are now (mostly) 1-byte indices.
If the module uses the same qstr more than two times then the bytecode is
smaller than before.
The following changes are measured for this commit compared to the
previous (the baseline):
- average 7%-9% reduction in size of .mpy files
- frozen code size is reduced by about 5%-7%
- importing .py files uses about 5% less RAM in total
- importing .mpy files uses about 4% less RAM in total
- importing .py and .mpy files takes about the same time as before
The qstr indirection in the bytecode has only a small impact on VM
performance. For stm32 on PYBv1.0 the performance change of this commit
is:

As part of this change the .mpy file format version is bumped to version 6.
And mpy-tool.py has been improved to provide a good visualisation of the
contents of .mpy files.
In summary: this commit changes the bytecode to use qstr indirection, and
reworks the .mpy file format to be simpler and allow .mpy files to be
executed in-place. Performance is not impacted too much. Eventually it
will be possible to store such .mpy files in a linear, read-only, memory-
mappable filesystem so they can be executed from flash/ROM. This will
essentially be able to replace frozen code for most applications.

Make it possible to proceed to a regular lookup in locals_dict if the
custom type->attr fails. This allows type->attr to extend rather than
completely replace the lookup in locals_dict.
This is useful for custom builtin classes that have mostly regular methods
but just a few special attributes/properties. This way, type->attr needs
to deal with the special cases only and the default lookup will be used for
generic methods.
