The SoftI2C constructor is now used soley to create SoftI2C instances, it
can no longer delegate to create a hardware-based I2C instance.

Also rename machine_i2c_type to mp_machine_soft_i2c_type. These changes
make it clear that it's a soft-I2C implementation, and match SoftSPI.

A read-only memoryview object is a better representation of the data, which
is owned by the ubluetooth module and may change between calls to the
user's irq callback function.

Prior to this commit, uos.chdir('/') followed by uos.stat('noexist') would
succeed that stat even though the entry did not exist (some other functions
like listdir would have similar issues). This is because, if the current
directory was the root and the path was relative, mp_vfs_lookup_path would
return success for bad paths.

For time-based functions that work with absolute time there is the need for
an Epoch, to set the zero-point at which the absolute time starts counting.
Such functions include time.time() and filesystem stat return values. And
different ports may use a different Epoch.
To make it clearer what functions use the Epoch (whatever it may be), and
make the ports more consistent with their use of the Epoch, this commit
renames all Epoch related functions to include the word "epoch" in their
name (and remove references to "2000").
Along with this rename, the following things have changed:
- mp_hal_time_ns() is now specified to return the number of nanoseconds
since the Epoch, rather than since 1970 (but since this is an internal
function it doesn't change anything for the user).
- littlefs timestamps on the esp8266 have been fixed (they were previously
off by 30 years in nanoseconds).
Otherwise, there is no functional change made by this commit.

For the following 3 functions, previously the code relied on whether the
arg was passed at all, to make it optional. Now it allows them to be
explicitly `None` to indicate they are not used:
- gatts_notify(..., [data])
- gattc_discover_services(..., [uuid])
- gattc_discover_characteristics(..., [uuid])
Also ensure that the uuid arguments are actually instances of the uuid
type, and fix handling of the 5th arg in gattc_discover_characteristics().
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.
Generally a controller should either have its own public address hardcoded,
or loaded by the driver (e.g. cywbt43).
However, for a controller that has no public address where you still want a
long-term stable address, this allows you to use a static address generated
by the port. Typically on STM32 this will be an LAA, but a board might
override this.
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.
Previously the interaction between the different layers of the Bluetooth
stack was different on each port and each stack. This commit defines
common interfaces between them and implements them for cyw43, btstack,
nimble, stm32, unix.
This is consistent with the other 'micro' modules and allows implementing
additional features in Python via e.g. micropython-lib's sys.
Note this is a breaking change (not backwards compatible) for ports which
do not enable weak links, as "import sys" must now be replaced with
"import usys".
By setting MICROPY_EPOCH_IS_1970 a port can opt to use 1970/1/1 as the
Epoch for timestamps returned by stat(). And this setting is enabled on
the unix and windows ports because that's what they use.

On ports like unix where the Epoch is 1970/1/1 and atime/mtime/ctime are in
seconds since the Epoch, this value will overflow a small-int on 32-bit
systems. So far this is only an issue on 32-bit unix builds that use the
VFS layer (eg dev and coverage unix variants) but the fix (using
mp_obj_new_int_from_uint instead of MP_OBJ_NEW_SMALL_INT) is there for all
ports so as to not complicate the code, and because they will need the
range one day.
Also apply a similar fix to other fields in VfsPosix.stat because they may
also be large.
