All tests in basics/ directory can now run and pass using 64-bit unix
port with only a 16k heap (./run-tests --heapsize 16k). Tests in this
directory should remain small so they can be used for ports with a
small heap.
Eg: '{:{}}'.format(123, '>20')
@pohmelie was the original author of this patch, but @dpgeorge made
significant changes to reduce code size and improve efficiency.
Tests in basics (which should probably be renamed to core) should not
rely on float, or import any non-built-in files. This way these tests
can be run when those features are not available.
All test in basics now pass on the pyboard using stmhal port, except for
string-repr which has some issues with character hex printing.
This adds support for almost everything (the comma isn't currently
supported).
The "unspecified" type with floats also doesn't behave exactly like
python.
Tested under unix with float and double
Spot tested on stmhal
