The STATIC macro was introduced a very long time ago in commit
d5df6cd44a. The original reason for this was
to have the option to define it to nothing so that all static functions
become global functions and therefore visible to certain debug tools, so
one could do function size comparison and other things.
This STATIC feature is rarely (if ever) used. And with the use of LTO and
heavy inline optimisation, analysing the size of individual functions when
they are not static is not a good representation of the size of code when
fully optimised.
So the macro does not have much use and it's simpler to just remove it.
Then you know exactly what it's doing. For example, newcomers don't have
to learn what the STATIC macro is and why it exists. Reading the code is
also less "loud" with a lowercase static.
One other minor point in favour of removing it, is that it stops bugs with
`STATIC inline`, which should always be `static inline`.
Methodology for this commit was:
1) git ls-files | egrep '\.[ch]$' | \
xargs sed -Ei "s/(^| )STATIC($| )/\1static\2/"
2) Do some manual cleanup in the diff by searching for the word STATIC in
comments and changing those back.
3) "git-grep STATIC docs/", manually fixed those cases.
4) "rg -t python STATIC", manually fixed codegen lines that used STATIC.

Updates any includes, and references from Makefiles/CMake.

This renames the builtin-modules, such that help('modules') and printing
the module object will show "module" rather than "umodule".

It's no longer needed because this macro is now processed after
preprocessing the source code via cpp (in the qstr extraction stage), which
means unused MP_REGISTER_MODULE's are filtered out by the preprocessor.

The random module's getrandbits() method didn't give a proper error message
when calling it with a value that was outside of the range of 1-32, which
can lead to confusion using this function (which under CPython can accept
numbers larger than 32). Now instead of simply giving a ValueError it
gives an error message that states that the number of bits is constrained.
Also, since the random module's functions getrandbits() and randint()
differ from CPython, tests have been added to describe these differences.
For getrandbits the relevant documentation is shown and added to the docs.
The same is given for randint method so that the information is more easily
found.
Finally, since the int object lacks the bit_length() method there is a test
for that method also to include within the docs, showing the difference to
CPython.
If a port provides MICROPY_PY_URANDOM_SEED_INIT_FUNC as a source of
randomness then this will be used when urandom.seed() is called without
an argument (or with None as the argument) to seed the pRNG.
Other related changes in this commit:
- mod_urandom___init__ is changed to call seed() without arguments, instead
of explicitly passing in the result of MICROPY_PY_URANDOM_SEED_INIT_FUNC.
- mod_urandom___init__ will only ever seed the pRNG once (before it could
seed it again if imported by, eg, random and then urandom).
- The Yasmarang state is moved to the BSS for builds where the state is
guaranteed to be initialised on import of the (u)random module.

Note: the uncrustify configuration is explicitly set to 'add' instead of
'force' in order not to alter the comments which use extra spaces after //
as a means of indenting text for clarity.
This provides a more consistent C-level API to raise exceptions, ie moving
away from nlr_raise towards mp_raise_XXX. It also reduces code size by a
small amount on some ports.
In CPython the random module is seeded differently on each import, and so
this new macro option MICROPY_PY_URANDOM_SEED_INIT_FUNC allows to implement
such a behaviour.
Header files that are considered internal to the py core and should not
normally be included directly are:
py/nlr.h - internal nlr configuration and declarations
py/bc0.h - contains bytecode macro definitions
py/runtime0.h - contains basic runtime enums
Instead, the top-level header files to include are one of:
py/obj.h - includes runtime0.h and defines everything to use the
mp_obj_t type
py/runtime.h - includes mpstate.h and hence nlr.h, obj.h, runtime0.h,
and defines everything to use the general runtime support functions
Additional, specific headers (eg py/objlist.h) can be included if needed.
Functions added are:
- randint
- randrange
- choice
- random
- uniform
They are enabled with configuration variable
MICROPY_PY_URANDOM_EXTRA_FUNCS, which is disabled by default. It is
enabled for unix coverage build and stmhal.
Seedable and reproducible pseudo-random number generator. Implemented
functions are getrandbits(n) (n <= 32) and seed().
