This enables the new `-X realtime` runtime option when running tests on
macOS. This causes MicroPython to configure all threads to be high
priority so that they are allowed to use high precision timers. This
makes tests that depend on the passage of time more likely to succeed.
CI tests that were disabled because of this are now enabled again.

Some architectures (like esp32 xtensa) cannot read byte-wise from
executable memory. This means the prelude for native functions -- which is
usually located after the machine code for the native function -- must be
placed in separate memory that can be read byte-wise. Prior to this commit
this was achieved by enabling N_PRELUDE_AS_BYTES_OBJ for the emitter and
MICROPY_EMIT_NATIVE_PRELUDE_AS_BYTES_OBJ for the runtime. The prelude was
then placed in a bytes object, pointed to by the module's constant table.
This behaviour is changed by this commit so that a pointer to the prelude
is stored either in mp_obj_fun_bc_t.child_table, or in
mp_obj_fun_bc_t.child_table[num_children] if num_children > 0. The reasons
for doing this are:
1. It decouples the native emitter from runtime requirements, the emitted
code no longer needs to know if the system it runs on can/can't read
byte-wise from executable memory.
2. It makes all ports have the same emitter behaviour, there is no longer
the N_PRELUDE_AS_BYTES_OBJ option.
3. The module's constant table is now used only for actual constants in the
Python code. This allows further optimisations to be done with the
constants (eg constant deduplication).
Code size change for those ports that enable the native emitter:
unix x64: +80 +0.015%

esp8266: +88 +0.013% GENERIC

Prior to this commit, even with unicode disabled .py and .mpy files could
contain unicode characters, eg by entering them directly in a string as
utf-8 encoded.
The only thing the compiler disallowed (with unicode disabled) was using
\uxxxx and \Uxxxxxxxx notation to specify a character within a string with
value >= 0x100; that would give a SyntaxError.
With this change mpy-cross will now accept \u and \U notation to insert a
character with value >= 0x100 into a string (because the -mno-unicode
option is now gone, there's no way to forbid this). The runtime will
happily work with strings with such characters, just like it already works
with strings with characters that were utf-8 encoded directly.
This change simplifies things because there are no longer any feature
flags in .mpy files, and any bytecode .mpy will now run on any target.

Specifying the option `--unsafe-links` (or `-l`) to `mpremote mount` will
allow symlinks to be followed in the local directory that point outside of
the base directory path.
For the unsafe case the `path_check()` method of `PyboardCommand` still
checks for a common path but without expanding symlinks. While this check
is currently redundant, it makes the purpose of the method clearer for
possible future uses or extensions.
With the existing code problems can occur with remounting, the "if t -
t_last_activity > QUIET_TIMEOUT:" check can be triggered early before the
REPL string comes through, meaning that the remount doesn't happen.
On certain boards the "MPY: soft reboot" line comes through immediately
(getting the routine past initial timeout) but then there's a slightly
longer delay while the board restarts before it prints out the startup
header and the REPL prompt.
This commit adds some extra pattern monitoring during the timeout loop to
track the state if a soft restart is actually started.
These jumps are always forwards, and it's more efficient in the VM to
decode an unsigned argument. These opcodes are already optimised versions
of the sequence "dup-top pop-jump-if-x pop" so it doesn't hurt generality
to optimise them further.

This commit introduces changes:
- All jump opcodes are changed to have variable length arguments, of either
1 or 2 bytes (previously they were fixed at 2 bytes). In most cases only
1 byte is needed to encode the short jump offset, saving bytecode size.
- The bytecode emitter now selects 1 byte jump arguments when the jump
offset is guaranteed to fit in 1 byte. This is achieved by checking if
the code size changed during the last pass and, if it did (if it shrank),
then requesting that the compiler make another pass to get the correct
offsets of the now-smaller code. This can continue multiple times until
the code stabilises. The code can only ever shrink so this iteration is
guaranteed to complete. In most cases no extra passes are needed, the
original 4 passes are enough to get it right by the 4th pass (because the
2nd pass computes roughly the correct labels and the 3rd pass computes
the correct size for the jump argument).
This change to the jump opcode encoding reduces .mpy files and RAM usage
(when bytecode is in RAM) by about 2% on average.
The performance of the VM is not impacted, at least within measurment of
the performance benchmark suite.
Code size is reduced for builds that include a decent amount of frozen
bytecode. ARM Cortex-M builds without any frozen code increase by about
350 bytes.

Background: .mpy files are precompiled .py files, built using mpy-cross,
that contain compiled bytecode functions (and can also contain machine
code). The benefit of using an .mpy file over a .py file is that they are
faster to import and take less memory when importing. They are also
smaller on disk.
But the real benefit of .mpy files comes when they are frozen into the
firmware. This is done by loading the .mpy file during compilation of the
firmware and turning it into a set of big C data structures (the job of
mpy-tool.py), which are then compiled and downloaded into the ROM of a
device. These C data structures can be executed in-place, ie directly from
ROM. This makes importing even faster because there is very little to do,
and also means such frozen modules take up much less RAM (because their
bytecode stays in ROM).
The downside of frozen code is that it requires recompiling and reflashing
the entire firmware. This can be a big barrier to entry, slows down
development time, and makes it harder to do OTA updates of frozen code
(because the whole firmware must be updated).
This commit attempts to solve this problem by providing a solution that
sits between loading .mpy files into RAM and freezing them into the
firmware. The .mpy file format has been reworked so that it consists of
data and bytecode which is mostly static and ready to run in-place. If
these new .mpy files are located in flash/ROM which is memory addressable,
the .mpy file can be executed (mostly) in-place.
With this approach there is still a small amount of unpacking and linking
of the .mpy file that needs to be done when it's imported, but it's still
much better than loading an .mpy from disk into RAM (although not as good
as freezing .mpy files into the firmware).
The main trick to make static .mpy files is to adjust the bytecode so any
qstrs that it references now go through a lookup table to convert from
local qstr number in the module to global qstr number in the firmware.
That means the bytecode does not need linking/rewriting of qstrs when it's
loaded. Instead only a small qstr table needs to be built (and put in RAM)
at import time. This means the bytecode itself is static/constant and can
be used directly if it's in addressable memory. Also the qstr string data
in the .mpy file, and some constant object data, can be used directly.
Note that the qstr table is global to the module (ie not per function).
In more detail, in the VM what used to be (schematically):
qst = DECODE_QSTR_VALUE;
is now (schematically):
idx = DECODE_QSTR_INDEX;
qst = qstr_table[idx];
That allows the bytecode to be fixed at compile time and not need
relinking/rewriting of the qstr values. Only qstr_table needs to be linked
when the .mpy is loaded.
Incidentally, this helps to reduce the size of bytecode because what used
to be 2-byte qstr values in the bytecode are now (mostly) 1-byte indices.
If the module uses the same qstr more than two times then the bytecode is
smaller than before.
The following changes are measured for this commit compared to the
previous (the baseline):
- average 7%-9% reduction in size of .mpy files
- frozen code size is reduced by about 5%-7%
- importing .py files uses about 5% less RAM in total
- importing .mpy files uses about 4% less RAM in total
- importing .py and .mpy files takes about the same time as before
The qstr indirection in the bytecode has only a small impact on VM
performance. For stm32 on PYBv1.0 the performance change of this commit
is:

As part of this change the .mpy file format version is bumped to version 6.
And mpy-tool.py has been improved to provide a good visualisation of the
contents of .mpy files.
In summary: this commit changes the bytecode to use qstr indirection, and
reworks the .mpy file format to be simpler and allow .mpy files to be
executed in-place. Performance is not impacted too much. Eventually it
will be possible to store such .mpy files in a linear, read-only, memory-
mappable filesystem so they can be executed from flash/ROM. This will
essentially be able to replace frozen code for most applications.

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):

- 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.

To keep things neat and tidy, we ensure that each file has 1 and only 1
newline at the end of each file.

This feature {x=} was introduced in Python 3.8 so needs a separate .exp
file to run on earlier Python versions.

This makes it work like --no-follow and --no-exclusive using a mutex group
and dest. Although the current implementation with BooleanOptionAction is
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.

And using "-B" means mpy-cross is forcefully rebuilt, sometimes with
invalid CFLAGS_EXTRA options which makes the auto-build fail.

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.
