- Use the same colour formatting.
- Add a tool to convert to .pcap for Wireshark.

This changes stm32 from using PENDSV to run NimBLE to use the MicroPython
scheduler instead. This allows Python BLE callbacks to be invoked directly
(and therefore synchronously) rather than via the ringbuffer.
The NimBLE UART HCI and event processing now happens in a scheduled task
every 128ms. When RX IRQ idle events arrive, it will also schedule this
task to improve latency.
There is a similar change for the unix port where the background thread now
queues the scheduled task.

This allows `ble.active(1)` to fail correctly if the HCI controller is
unavailable.
It also avoids an infine loop in the NimBLE event handler where NimBLE
doesn't correctly detect that the HCI controller is unavailable and keeps
trying to reset.
Furthermore, it fixes an issue where GATT service registrations were left
allocated, which led to a bad realloc if the stack was activated multiple
times.
This commit adds support for using Bluetooth on the unix port via a H4
serial interface (distinct from a USB dongle), with both BTstack and NimBLE
Bluetooth stacks.
Note that MICROPY_PY_BLUETOOTH is now disabled for the coverage variant.
Prior to this commit Bluetooth was anyway not being built on Travis because
libusb was not detected. But now that bluetooth works in H4 mode it will
be built, and will lead to a large decrease in coverage because Bluetooth
tests cannot be run on Travis.
