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 requires that the event handlers are called from non-interrupt context
(i.e. the MicroPython scheduler).
This will allow the BLE stack (e.g. NimBLE) to run from the scheduler
rather than an IRQ like PENDSV, and therefore be able to invoke Python
callbacks directly/synchronously. This allows writing Python BLE handlers
for events that require immediate response such as _IRQ_READ_REQUEST (which
was previous a hard IRQ) and future events relating to pairing/bonding.

Using a semaphore (the previous approach) will only run the UART, whereas
for startup we need to also run the event queue.
This change makes it run the full scheduler hook.

Instead of having the stack indicate a "start", "data"..., "end", pass
through the data in one callback as an array of chunks of data.
This is because the upcoming non-ringbuffer modbluetooth implementation
cannot buffer the data in the ringbuffer and requires instead a single
callback with all the data, to pass to the Python callback.

Use the same `wait_for_event` in all tests that doesn't hold a reference to
the event data tuple and handles repeat events.
Also fix a few misc reliability issues around timeouts and sequencing.

Devices with RTC backup-batteries have been shown (very rarely) to have
incorrect RTC prescaler values. Such incorrect values mean the RTC counts
fast or slow, and will be wrong forever if the power/backup-battery is
always present.
This commit detects such a state at start up (hard reset) and corrects it
by reconfiguring the RTC prescaler values.

And rename SRC_HAL -> HAL_SRC_C and SRC_USBDEV -> USBDEV_SRC_C for
consistency with other source variables.

Prior to this change machine.mem32['foo'] (or using any other non-integer
subscript) could result in a fault due to 'foo' being interpreted as an
integer. And when writing code it's hard to tell if the fault is due to a
bad subscript type, or an integer subscript that specifies an invalid
memory address.
The type of the object used in the subscript is now tested to be an
integer by using mp_obj_get_int_truncated instead of
mp_obj_int_get_truncated. The performance hit of this change is minimal,
and machine.memX objects are more for convenience than performance (there
are many other ways to read/write memory in a faster way),
Fixes issue #6588.
The file `$(BUILD)/firmware.bin` was used by the target `deploy-stlink` and
`deploy-openocd` but it was generated indirectly by the target
`firmware.dfu`.
As this file could be used to program boards directly by a Mass Storage
copy, it's better to make it explicitly generated.
Additionally, some target are refactored to remove redundancy and be more
explicit on dependencies.
This gives a substantial speedup of the preprocessing step, i.e. the
generation of qstr.i.last. For example on a clean build, making
qstr.i.last:
21s -> 4s on STM32 (WB55)
8.9 -> 1.8s on Unix (dev).
Done in collaboration with @stinos.

Running the update inside the soft-reset loop will mean that (on boards
like PYBD that use a bootloader) the same reset mode is used each
reset loop, eg factory reset occurs each time.
