In current state `mp_get_stream_raise` assumes that `self_in` is an object
and always performs a pointer derefence which may cause a segfault.
This function shall throw an exception whenever `self_in` does not implement
a stream protocol, that includes qstr's and numbers.
fixes#2331
In `btree_seq()`, when `__bt_seq()` gets called with invalid
`flags` argument it will return `RET_ERROR` and it won't
initialize `val`. If field `data` of uninitialized `val`
is passed to `mp_obj_new_bytes()` it causes a segfault.
It turns out that TIM1 and TIM8 have their own Capture/Compare
interrupt vector. For all of the other timers, the capture/compare
interrupt vector is the same as the update vector.
So we need to add handlers for these vectors and enable them
when using capture/compare callbacks.
During testing of this, I also found that passing a channel callback
into the channel constructor would not enable interrupts properly.
I tested using:
```
>>> pyb.Timer(1, freq=4).channel(1, pyb.Timer.OC_TOGGLE, callback=lambda t: print('.', end=''))
```
I tested the above with channels 1, 4, and 8
This type was used only for the typedef of mp_obj_t, which is now defined
by the object representation. So we can now remove this unused typedef,
to simplify the mpconfigport.h file.
The machine_ptr_t type is long obsolete as the type of mp_obj_t is now
defined by the object representation, ie by MICROPY_OBJ_REPR. So just use
void* explicitly for the typedef of mp_obj_t.
If a port wants to use something different then they should define a new
object representation.
