Some important changes to the way the file system is structured on the
pyboard:
1. 0: and 1: drive names are now replaced with POSIX inspired
directories, namely /flash and /sd.
2. Filesystem now supports the notion of a current working directory.
Supports the standard Python way of manipulating it: os.chdir and
os.getcwd.
3. On boot up, current directory is /flash if no SD inserted, else /sd
if SD inserted. Then runs boot.py and main.py from the current dir.
This is the same as the old behaviour, but is much more consistent and
flexible (eg you can os.chdir in boot.py to change where main.py is run
from).
4. sys.path (for import) is now set to '' (current dir), plus /flash
and /flash/lib, and then /sd and /sd/lib if SD inserted. This, along
with CWD, means that import now works properly. You can import a file
from the current directory.
5. os.listdir is fixed to return just the basename, not the full path.
See issue #537 for background and discussion.
As we are building with -nostdlib gcc features like the stack protector
will fail linking, because the failure handlers are in gcc's internal
libs. Such features are implicitly disabled during compilation when
-nostdlib is used in CFLAGS too.

-nostdlib is the correct option, gcc recognizes the double dash version
when in link-only mode, but not when compiling.

It's not enabled by default because it doesn't fully work. It can
connect to an AP, get an IP address and do a host-lookup, but not yet do
send or recv on a socket.
It's really a UART because there is no external clock line (and hence no
synchronous ability, at least in the implementation of this module).
USART should be reserved for a module that has "S"ynchronous capabilities.
Also, UART is shorter and easier to type :)
This is an attempt to clean up the Micro Python API on the pyboard.
Gpio functionality is now in the Pin object, which seems more natural.
Constants for MODE and PULL are now in pyb.Pin. Names of some
classes have been adjusted to conform to CamelCase. Other
miscellaneous changes and clean up here and there.
The autogenerated header files have been moved about, and an extra
include dir has been added, which means you can give a custom
BUILD=newbuilddir option to make, and everything "just works"
Also tidied up the way the different Makefiles build their include-
directory flags
The USB VID&PID are automatically extracted from usbd_desc_cdc_msc.c
and inserted into pybcdc_inf.template, ensuring that the same USB
IDs get used everywhere
Also contains raw memory read/write functions, read8, read16, read32,
write8, write16, write32. Can now do:
stm.write16(stm.GPIOA + stm.GPIO_BSRRL, 1 << 13)
This turns on the red LED.
With the new constant folding, the above constants for the GPIO address
are actually compiled to constants (and the addition done) at compile
time. For viper code and inline assembler, this optimisation will make
a big difference. In the inline assembler, using these constants would
not be possible without this constant folding.
All board config macros now begin with MICROPY_HW_.
Renamed PYBv10 to PYBV10, since macros should be all uppercase.
Made SDCARD_DETECT configurable in mpconfigport.h, so that the SD
detect pin can be easily configured.
Can now choose at boot up whether the USB device is CDC+MSC or CDC+HID.
Choice is made by an option in boot.py, with default being CDC+MSC.
HID+MSC is not currently supported, but should be easy to implement.
Boot up now has ability to change the reset mode: hold down USR switch
while booting and LEDs will count from 1 to 7 to indicate the boot mode.
Release USR when correct mode is selected. Current modes are 1 (normal
boot), 2 (safe mode), 3 (reset FS mode).
Added support for the ADC channels and mappings to make_pins.py
I'm not sure if the hal properly deals with the channel 16/18 differences
between the 40x and 42x. It seems to deal with it partially. This particular
aspect will need testing on a 42x or 43x.
New USB HAL is quite a bit improved over previous one. Now has better
callbacks and flow control.
REPL over USB CDC now works as before, except for soft-reset (since USB
driver uses malloc...).
