This commit removes all parts of code associated with the existing
MICROPY_OPT_CACHE_MAP_LOOKUP_IN_BYTECODE optimisation option, including the
-mcache-lookup-bc option to mpy-cross.
This feature originally provided a significant performance boost for Unix,
but wasn't able to be enabled for MCU targets (due to frozen bytecode), and
added significant extra complexity to generating and distributing .mpy
files.
The equivalent performance gain is now provided by the combination of
MICROPY_OPT_LOAD_ATTR_FAST_PATH and MICROPY_OPT_MAP_LOOKUP_CACHE (which has
been enabled on the unix port in the previous commit).
It's hard to provide precise performance numbers, but tests have been run
on a wide variety of architectures (x86-64, ARM Cortex, Aarch64, RISC-V,
xtensa) and they all generally agree on the qualitative improvements seen
by the combination of MICROPY_OPT_LOAD_ATTR_FAST_PATH and
MICROPY_OPT_MAP_LOOKUP_CACHE.
For example, on a "quiet" Linux x64 environment (i3-5010U @ 2.10GHz) the
change from CACHE_MAP_LOOKUP_IN_BYTECODE, to LOAD_ATTR_FAST_PATH combined
with MAP_LOOKUP_CACHE is:

This shows that the new optimisations are at least as good as the existing
inline-bytecode-caching, and are sometimes much better (because the new
ones apply caching to a wider variety of map lookups).
The new optimisations can also benefit code generated by the native
emitter, because they apply to the runtime rather than the generated code.
The improvement for the native emitter when LOAD_ATTR_FAST_PATH and
MAP_LOOKUP_CACHE are enabled is (same Linux environment as above):

In summary, compared to MICROPY_OPT_CACHE_MAP_LOOKUP_IN_BYTECODE, the new
MICROPY_OPT_LOAD_ATTR_FAST_PATH and MICROPY_OPT_MAP_LOOKUP_CACHE options:
- are simpler;
- take less code size;
- are faster (generally);
- work with code generated by the native emitter;
- can be used on embedded targets with a small and constant RAM overhead;
- allow the same .mpy bytecode to run on all targets.
See #7680 for further discussion. And see also #7653 for a discussion
about simplifying mpy-cross options.

- Moves definition of BOARD_FLASH_SIZE and other header files related to
flash configuration into the Makefile.
- Adds board specific clock_config.h.
- Adds board.h, pin_mux.h, and peripherals.h as they are
required by NXP MCU SDK in order to use our own clock_config.h.
- Renames board specific FlexSPI configuration files.
- Updates flash frequency of MIMXRT1020_EVK
- Creates separated flash_config files for QSPI NOR and
QSPI Hyper flash.
- Unifies VFS start address to be @ 1M for 1010 and 1020 boards.
- Unifies 1050EVK boards
- Adds support to both NOR and HyperFlash on boards with
both capabilities.
- Adds automatic FlexRAM initialization to start-up code based on
linker script and NXP HAL.
- Applies code formatting to all files in mimxrt port.
With this change the flash configuration is restructured and
organized. This simplifies the configuration process and
provides a better overview of each board's settings. With the integration
of clock_config.h, board.h, pin_mux.h, and peripherals.h we gain better
control of the settings and clock configurations. Furthermore the
implementation of an explicit FlexRAM setup improves the system
performance and allows for performance tuning.

This makes it work like --no-follow and --no-exclusive using a mutex group

neater it requires Python 3.9, so don't use this feature.

The --no-exclusive flag was accidentally added to the mutex group in
178198a01d.
The --soft-reset flag was accidentally added to the mutex group in
41adf17830.
These flags can be specified independently to --[no-]follow so should not
be in that mutex group.

The sys.stdin.buffer and sys.stdout.buffer streams work just as well (and
are just as fast) as pyb.USB_VCP on stm32 devices, so there's no need to
have the USB_VCP specialisation code, which just adds complexity.
Also, on stm32 devices with both USB and UART (or other serial interface),
if something other than the USB_VCP port is used for the serial connection
then mpremote mount will not work because it will default to reading and
writing on USB_VCP instead of the other connected serial stream.
As part of this simplification, support for a second port as input is
removed (this feature was never exposed to the user).

This implements (most of) the PEP-498 spec for f-strings and is based on
https://github.com/micropython/micropython/pull/4998 by @klardotsh.
It is implemented in the lexer as a syntax translation to `str.format`:
f"{a}" --> "{}".format(a)
It also supports:
f"{a=}" --> "a={}".format(a)
This is done by extracting the arguments into a temporary vstr buffer,
then after the string has been tokenized, the lexer input queue is saved
and the contents of the temporary vstr buffer are injected into the lexer
instead.
There are four main limitations:
- raw f-strings (`fr` or `rf` prefixes) are not supported and will raise
`SyntaxError: raw f-strings are not supported`.
- literal concatenation of f-strings with adjacent strings will fail
"{}" f"{a}" --> "{}{}".format(a) (str.format will incorrectly use
the braces from the non-f-string)
f"{a}" f"{a}" --> "{}".format(a) "{}".format(a) (cannot concatenate)
- PEP-498 requires the full parser to understand the interpolated
argument, however because this entirely runs in the lexer it cannot
resolve nested braces in expressions like
f"{'}'}"
- The !r, !s, and !a conversions are not supported.
Includes tests and cpydiffs.

The firmware for Teensy 4.0, Teensy 4.1 and MIMXRT1020_EVK are created.
Users of other MIMXRT10xx_EVK boards should be able to build the firmware
themselves, they might need specific DEBUG settings.
The Makefile had to be changed in order to build the .bin file as well.
Coverage calculated by Codecov has the same reliability/deterministic
issues as Coveralls did, so the problem is likely to do with the output of
lcov/gcov, rather than the analysis and display of the data.
Switch from lcov to gcov for data generation to try and simplify this
process of computing coverage.

Using just the list of available ports, instead of a hard-coded list of
possible ports, means that all ports will be available for auto connection.
And the order that they will be attempted in will match what's printed by
"mpremote connect list" (and will be the same as before, trying ACMx before
USBx). Auto-connect will also now work on Mac, and will allow all COM
ports on Windows.

This adds a coverage build and running of the test suite on a MIPS 32-bit
big endian architecture. It uses the feature of qemu to execute foreign
code as though it were native to the system (using qemu user mode). The
code compiled for MIPS will run under the qemu VM, but all syscalls made by
this code go to the host (Linux) system.
