MPY files can now hold generated RV32IMC native code. This can be
accomplished by passing the `-march=rv32imc` flag to mpy-cross.

This commit changes how library packages are searched for when a manifest
file is loaded: there is now simply a list of library paths that is
searched in order for the given package. This list defaults to the
main directories in micropython-lib, but can be added to -- either appended
or prepended -- by using `add_library()`.
In particular the way unix-ffi library packages are searched has changed,
because the `unix_ffi` argument to `require()` is now removed. Instead, if
a build wants to include packages from micropython-lib/unix-ffi, then it
must explicitly add this to the list of paths to search using:
add_library("unix-ffi", "$(MPY_LIB_DIR)/unix-ffi")

This commit adds the "--escape-non-printable" option to the repl command.
When specified the REPL console will escape non-printable characters,
printing them as their hex value in square brackets.
This escaping behaviour was previously the default and only behaviour, but
it is now opt-in.
As part of this change, the speed of echoing device data to the console is
improved by by reading and writing in chunks.

On MacOS and Windows there are a few default serial devices that are
returned by `serial.tools.list_ports.comports()`. For example on MacOS:
```
{'description': 'n/a',
'device': '/dev/cu.Bluetooth-Incoming-Port',
'hwid': 'n/a',
'interface': None,
'location': None,
'manufacturer': None,
'name': 'cu.Bluetooth-Incoming-Port',
'pid': None,
'product': None,
'serial_number': None,
'vid': None}
{'description': 'n/a',
'device': '/dev/cu.wlan-debug',
'hwid': 'n/a',
'interface': None,
'location': None,
'manufacturer': None,
'name': 'cu.wlan-debug',
'pid': None,
'product': None,
'serial_number': None,
'vid': None}
```
Users of mpremote most likely do not want to connect to these ports. It
would be desirable if mpremote did not select this ports when using the
auto connect behavior. These serial ports do not have USB VID or PID
values and serial ports for Micropython boards with FTDI/serial-to-USB
adapter or native USB CDC/ACM support do.
Check for the presence of a USB VID / PID int value when selecting a
serial port to auto connect to. All serial ports will still be listed by
the `list` command and can still be selected by name when connecting.

This supports the same package sources as the new `mip` tool.
- micropython-lib (by name)
- http(s) & github packages with json description
- directly downloading a .py/.mpy file
The version is specified with an optional `@version` on the end of the
package name. The target dir, index, and mpy/no-mpy can be set through
command line args.

The intent is to allow us to make breaking changes to the native ABI (e.g.
changes to dynruntime.h) without needing the bytecode version to increment.
With this commit the two bits previously used for the feature flags (but
now unused as of .mpy version 6) encode a sub-version. A bytecode-only
.mpy file can be loaded as long as MPY_VERSION matches, but a native .mpy
(i.e. one with an arch set) must also match MPY_SUB_VERSION. This allows 3
additional updates to the native ABI per bytecode revision.
The sub-version is set to 1 because the previous commits that changed the
layout of mp_obj_type_t have changed the native ABI.

Now that constant tuples are supported in the parser, eg (1, True, "str"),
it's a small step to allow anything that is a constant to be used with the
pattern:
from micropython import const
X = const(obj)
This commit makes the required changes to allow the following types of
constants:
from micropython import const
_INT = const(123)
_FLOAT = const(1.2)
_COMPLEX = const(3.4j)
_STR = const("str")
_BYTES = const(b"bytes")
_TUPLE = const((_INT, _STR, _BYTES))
_TUPLE2 = const((None, False, True, ..., (), _TUPLE))
Prior to this, only integers could be used in const(...).

Specifying the option `--unsafe-links` (or `-l`) to `mpremote mount` will
allow symlinks to be followed in the local directory that point outside of
the base directory path.
For the unsafe case the `path_check()` method of `PyboardCommand` still
checks for a common path but without expanding symlinks. While this check
is currently redundant, it makes the purpose of the method clearer for
possible future uses or extensions.
This makes the auto soft-reset behaviour of mpremote more logical, and now
configurable via these new commands.

This commit removes all parts of code associated with the existing
MICROPY_OPT_CACHE_MAP_LOOKUP_IN_BYTECODE optimisation option, including the
-mcache-lookup-bc option to mpy-cross.
This feature originally provided a significant performance boost for Unix,
but wasn't able to be enabled for MCU targets (due to frozen bytecode), and
added significant extra complexity to generating and distributing .mpy
files.
The equivalent performance gain is now provided by the combination of
MICROPY_OPT_LOAD_ATTR_FAST_PATH and MICROPY_OPT_MAP_LOOKUP_CACHE (which has
been enabled on the unix port in the previous commit).
It's hard to provide precise performance numbers, but tests have been run
on a wide variety of architectures (x86-64, ARM Cortex, Aarch64, RISC-V,
xtensa) and they all generally agree on the qualitative improvements seen
by the combination of MICROPY_OPT_LOAD_ATTR_FAST_PATH and
MICROPY_OPT_MAP_LOOKUP_CACHE.
For example, on a "quiet" Linux x64 environment (i3-5010U @ 2.10GHz) the
change from CACHE_MAP_LOOKUP_IN_BYTECODE, to LOAD_ATTR_FAST_PATH combined
with MAP_LOOKUP_CACHE is:
diff of scores (higher is better)
N=2000 M=2000 bccache -> attrmapcache diff diff% (error%)

This shows that the new optimisations are at least as good as the existing
inline-bytecode-caching, and are sometimes much better (because the new
ones apply caching to a wider variety of map lookups).
The new optimisations can also benefit code generated by the native
emitter, because they apply to the runtime rather than the generated code.
The improvement for the native emitter when LOAD_ATTR_FAST_PATH and
MAP_LOOKUP_CACHE are enabled is (same Linux environment as above):

misc_raytrace.py 19800.01 -> 23350.73 : +3550.72 = +17.933% (+/-2.79%)
In summary, compared to MICROPY_OPT_CACHE_MAP_LOOKUP_IN_BYTECODE, the new
MICROPY_OPT_LOAD_ATTR_FAST_PATH and MICROPY_OPT_MAP_LOOKUP_CACHE options:
- are simpler;
- take less code size;
- are faster (generally);
- work with code generated by the native emitter;
- can be used on embedded targets with a small and constant RAM overhead;
- allow the same .mpy bytecode to run on all targets.
See #7680 for further discussion. And see also #7653 for a discussion
about simplifying mpy-cross options.
