If a non-string buffer was passed to execfile, then it would be passed
as a non-null-terminated char* to mp_lexer_new_from_file.
This changes mp_lexer_new_from_file to take a qstr instead (as in almost
all cases a qstr will be created from this input anyway to set the
`__file__` attribute on the module).
This now makes execfile require a string (not generic buffer) argument,
which is probably a good fix to make anyway.
Fixes issue #12522.

Helps prevent the filesystem from getting formatted by mistake, among other
things. For example, on a Pico board, entering Ctrl+D and Ctrl+C fast many
times will eventually wipe the filesystem (without warning or notice).
Further rationale: Ctrl+C is used a lot by automation scripts (eg mpremote)
and UI's (eg Mu, Thonny) to get the board into a known state. If the board
is not responding for a short time then it's not possible to know if it's
just a slow start up (eg in _boot.py), or an infinite loop in the main
application. The former should not be interrupted, but the latter should.
The only way to distinguish these two cases would be to wait "long enough",
and if there's nothing on the serial after "long enough" then assume it's
running the application and Ctrl+C should break out of it. But defining
"long enough" is impossible for all the different boards and their possible
behaviour. The solution in this commit is to make it so that frozen
start-up code cannot be interrupted by Ctrl+C. That code then effectively
acts like normal C start-up code, which also cannot be interrupted.
Note: on the stm32 port this was never seen as an issue because all
start-up code is in C. But now other ports start to put more things in
_boot.py and so this problem crops up.

The following changes are made:
- If MICROPY_VFS is enabled then mp_vfs_import_stat and mp_vfs_open are
automatically used for mp_import_stat and mp_builtin_open respectively.
- If MICROPY_PY_IO is enabled then "open" is automatically included in the
set of builtins, and points to mp_builtin_open_obj.
This helps to clean up and simplify the most common port configuration.

Microwatt may have firmware that places data in r3, which was used to
detect microwatt vs powernv. This breaks the existing probing of the UART
type in this powerpc port.
Instead build only the appropriate UART into the firmware, selected by
passing the option UART=potato or UART=lpc_serial to the Makefile.
A future enhancement would be to parse the device tree and configure
MicroPython based on the settings.
