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.
When querying an object that supports the buffer protocol, that object
must now return a typecode (as per binary.[ch]). This does not have to
be honoured by the caller, but can be useful for determining element
size.
On stmhal, computed gotos make the binary about 1k bigger, but makes it
run faster, and we have the room, so why not. All tests pass on
pyboard using computed gotos.
This follows pattern already used for objtuple, etc.: objfun.h's content
is not public - each and every piece of code should not have access to it.
It's not private either - with out architecture and implementation language
(C) it doesn't make sense to keep implementation of each object strictly
private and maintain cumbersome accessors. It's "local" - intended to be
used by a small set of "friend" (in C++ terms) objects.
