This patch adds a configuration option (MICROPY_CAN_OVERRIDE_BUILTINS)
which, when enabled, allows to override all names within the builtins
module. A builtins override dict is created the first time the user
assigns to a name in the builtins model, and then that dict is searched
first on subsequent lookups. Note that this implementation doesn't
allow deleting of names.
This patch also does some refactoring of builtins code, creating the
modbuiltins.c file.
Addresses issue #959.
mp_lexer_t type is exposed, mp_token_t type is removed, and simple lexer
functions (like checking current token kind) are now inlined.
This saves 784 bytes ROM on 32-bit unix, 348 bytes on stmhal, and 460
bytes on bare-arm. It also saves a tiny bit of RAM since mp_lexer_t
is a bit smaller. Also will run a bit more efficiently.
Going from MICROPY_ERROR_REPORTING_NORMAL to
MICROPY_ERROR_REPORTING_TERSE now saves 2020 bytes ROM for ARM Thumb2,
and 2200 bytes ROM for 32-bit x86.
This is about a 2.5% code size reduction for bare-arm.
When compiler optimization has been turned on, gcc knows that this code
block is not going to be executed. But with -O0 it complains about
path_items being used uninitialized.

Support for packages as argument not implemented, but otherwise error and
exit handling should be correct. This for example will allow to do:
pip-micropython install micropython-test.pystone
micropython -m test.pystone
With this patch a port can enable module weak link support and provide
a dict of qstr->module mapping. This mapping is looked up only if an
import fails to find the requested module in the filesystem.
This allows to have the builtin module named, eg, usocket, and provide
a weak link of "socket" to the same module, but this weak link can be
overridden if a file by the name "socket.py" is found in the import
path.
This has benefits all round: code factoring for parse/compile/execute,
proper context save/restore for exec, allow to sepcify globals/locals
for eval, and reduced ROM usage by >100 bytes on stmhal and unix.
Also, the call to mp_parse_compile_execute is tail call optimised for
the import code, so it doesn't increase stack memory usage.
mp_parse_node_free now frees the memory associated with non-interned
strings. And the parser calls mp_parse_node_free when discarding a
non-used node (such as a doc string).
Also, the compiler now frees the parse tree explicitly just before it
exits (as opposed to relying on the caller to do this).
Addresses issue #708 as best we can.
Stack is full descending and must be 8-byte aligned. It must start off
pointing to just above the last byte of RAM.
Previously, stack started pointed to last byte of RAM (eg 0x2001ffff)
and so was not 8-byte aligned. This caused a bug in combination with
alloca.
This patch also updates some debug printing code.
Addresses issue #872 (among many other undiscovered issues).
