We are not word-for-word compatible with CPython exceptions, so we are
free to make them short but informative in order to reduce code size.
Also, try to make messages the same as existing ones where possible.
This fixes conversion when float type has more mantissa bits than small int,
and float value has small exponent. This is for example the case of 32-bit
platform using doubles, and converting value of time.time(). Conversion of
floats with larg exponnet is still not handled correctly.
We don't have an explicit ChangeLog file, but don't really need one
because we use a good version control system. This script is useful if
you need a pretty-printed ChangeLog for some reason.
This is for efficiency, so we don't need to subtract 1 from the ip
before storing it to code_state->ip. It saves a lot of ROM bytes on
unix and stmhal.
Mirroring ip to a volatile memory variable for each opcode is an expensive
operation. For quite a lot of often executed opcodes like stack manipulation
or jumps, exceptions cannot actually happen. So, record ip only for opcode
where that's possible.
