In new hardware API, these classes implement master modes of interfaces,
and "mode" parameter is not accepted. Trying to implement new HW API
in terms of older pyb module leaves variuos corner cases:
In new HW API, I2C(1) means "I2C #1 in master mode" (? depends on
interpretation), while in old API, it means "I2C #1, with no settings
changes".
For I2C class, it's easy to make mode optional, because that's last
positional param, but for SPI, there's "baudrate" after it (which
is inconsistent with I2C, which requires "baudrate" to be kwonly-arg).
This makes select.poll() interface fully compatible with CpYthon. Also, make
their numeric values of these options compatible with Linux (and by extension,
with iBCS2 standard, which jopefully means compatibility with other Unices too).
py/mphal.h contains declarations for generic mp_hal_XXX functions, such
as stdio and delay/ticks, which ports should provide definitions for. A
port will also provide mphalport.h with further HAL declarations.
This prevents the loss of RTC time when exiting from standby mode, since
the RTC is paused while it is being re-inited and this loses about 120ms.
Thanks to @chuckbook for the patch.
This file is actually port-generic and should be moved out of stmhal/ .
Other ports already use it, and thus it should use mp_hal_ticks_ms()
right away.
These MPHAL functions are intended to replace previously used HAL_Delay(),
HAL_GetTick() to provide better naming and MPHAL separation (they are
fully equivalent otherwise).
Also, refactor extmod/modlwip to use them.
