See discussion in issue #50.

Native emitter can now compile try/except blocks using nlr_push/nlr_pop.
It probably only works for 1 level of exception handling.  It doesn't
work on Thumb (only x64).

Native emitter can also handle some additional op codes.

With this patch, 198 tests now pass using "-X emit=native" option to
micropython.

It defines types used by all other headers.

Fixes #691.

bytecode is the more widely used.  See issue #590.

Blanket wide to all .c and .h files.  Some files originating from ST are
difficult to deal with (license wise) so it was left out of those.

Also merged modpyb.h, modos.h, modstm.h and modtime.h in stmhal/.

It's the same as LOAD_CONST_STR.

3 emitter functions are needed only for emitcpy, and so we can #if them
out when compiling with emitcpy support.

Also remove unused SETUP_LOOP bytecode.

Closed over variables are now passed on the stack, instead of creating a
tuple and passing that.  This way memory for the closed over variables
can be allocated within the closure object itself.  See issue #510 for
background.

mp_obj_t->subscr now does load/store/delete.

Attempt to address issue #386.  unique_code_id's have been removed and
replaced with a pointer to the "raw code" information.  This pointer is
stored in the actual byte code (aligned, so the GC can trace it), so
that raw code (ie byte code, native code and inline assembler) is kept
only for as long as it is needed.  In memory it's now like a tree: the
outer module's byte code points directly to its children's raw code.  So
when the outer code gets freed, if there are no remaining functions that
need the raw code, then the children's code gets freed as well.

This is pretty much like CPython does it, except that CPython stores
indexes in the byte code rather than machine pointers.  These indices
index the per-function constant table in order to find the relevant
code.

Can do this now that the stack size calculation is improved.

Much less of a hack now.  Hopefully it's correct!

Labels should never be negative, and this modified type signature
reflects that.

Small reduction in ROM, heap and stack usage.

Very little has changed.  In Python 3.4 they removed the opcode
STORE_LOCALS, but in Micro Python we only ever used this for CPython
compatibility, so it was a trivial thing to remove.  It also allowed to
clean up some dead code (eg the 0xdeadbeef in class construction), and
now class builders use 1 less stack word.

Python 3.4.0 introduced the LOAD_CLASSDEREF opcode, which I have not
yet understood.  Still, all tests (apart from bytecode test) still pass.
Bytecode tests needs some more attention, but they are not that
important anymore.

In preparation for implementing default keyword arguments.

Mostly just a global search and replace.  Except rt_is_true which
becomes mp_obj_is_true.

Still would like to tidy up some of the names, but this will do for now.

Remove unnecessary includes. Add includes that improve portability.

IS_NOT and NOT_IN are now compiled to IS + NOT and IN + NOT, with a new
special NOT bytecode.

LOAD_METHOD bug was: emitbc did not correctly calculate the amount of
stack usage for a LOAD_METHOD operation.

small int bug was: int was being used to pass small ints, when it should
have been machine_int_t.

There can be multiple emitters allocated during compile (eg byte code
and native).

Can now have null bytes in strings.  Can define ROM qstrs per port using
qstrdefsport.h

Byte code has a map from byte-code offset to source-code line number,
used to give better error messages.

With MICROPY_EMIT_X64 and MICROPY_EMIT_THUMB disabled, the respective
emitters and assemblers will not be included in the code.  This can
significantly reduce binary size for unix version.

A big change.  Micro Python objects are allocated as individual structs
with the first element being a pointer to the type information (which
is itself an object).  This scheme follows CPython.  Much more flexible,
not necessarily slower, uses same heap memory, and can allocate objects
statically.

Also change name prefix, from py_ to mp_ (mp for Micro Python).
