The user code should call micropython.alloc_emergency_exception_buf(size)
where size is the size of the buffer used to print the argument
passed to the exception.

With the test code from #732, and a call to
micropython.alloc_emergenncy_exception_buf(100) the following error is
now printed:
```python
>>> import heartbeat_irq
Uncaught exception in Timer(4) interrupt handler
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "0://heartbeat_irq.py", line 14, in heartbeat_cb
NameError: name 'led' is not defined
```

With unicode enabled, this patch allows reading a fixed number of
characters from text-mode streams; eg file.read(5) will read 5 unicode
chars, which can made of more than 5 bytes.

For an ASCII stream (ie no chars > 127) it only needs to do 1 read.  If
there are lots of non-ASCII chars in a stream, then it needs multiple
reads of the underlying object.

Adds a new test for this case.  Enables unicode support by default on
unix and stmhal ports.

See discussion in issue #50.

Unicode is disabled by default for now, since FileIO.read(n) is
currently not implemented for text-mode files, and this is an
often function.

Refactored some stmhal files which are shared with teensy.

Also now returns correct POSIX errno when an IO operation fails.

Addresses issues #516 and #676.

This renames:
MICROPY_PY_FROZENSET -> MICROPY_PY_BUILTINS_FROZENSET
MICROPY_PY_PROPERTY -> MICROPY_PY_BUILTINS_PROPERTY
MICROPY_PY_SLICE -> MICROPY_PY_BUILTINS_SLICE
MICROPY_ENABLE_FLOAT -> MICROPY_PY_BUILTINS_FLOAT

See issue #35 for discussion.

Now of the form MICROPY_PY_*.  See issue #35.

MP_ALLOC_* -> MICROPY_ALLOC_*
MICROPY_PATH_MAX -> MICROPY_ALLOC_PATH_MAX
MICROPY_ENABLE_REPL_HELPERS -> MICROPY_HELPER_REPL
MICROPY_ENABLE_LEXER_UNIX -> MICROPY_HELPER_LEXER_UNIX
MICROPY_EXTRA_* -> MICROPY_PORT_*

See issue #35.

For consistency with MICROPY_MOD_SYS_STDFILES, etc.

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/.

Make include dependencies neater, and adheres to the coding convention
that headers should not include headers.

On stmhal, computed gotos make the binary about 1k bigger, but makes it
run faster, and we have the room, so why not.  All tests pass on
pyboard using computed gotos.

Available via sys.std{in,out,err}.  Basic reading and writing supported.
Even sys.stdin.readline!

Should address issue #475.

Also contains raw memory read/write functions, read8, read16, read32,
write8, write16, write32.  Can now do:

stm.write16(stm.GPIOA + stm.GPIO_BSRRL, 1 << 13)

This turns on the red LED.

With the new constant folding, the above constants for the GPIO address
are actually compiled to constants (and the addition done) at compile
time.  For viper code and inline assembler, this optimisation will make
a big difference.  In the inline assembler, using these constants would
not be possible without this constant folding.

Finishes addressing issue #424.

In the end this was a very neat refactor that now makes things a lot
more consistent across the py code base.  It allowed some
simplifications in certain places, now that everything is a dict object.

Also converted builtins tables to dictionaries.  This will be useful
when we need to turn builtins into a proper module.

Comes with some refactoring of code and renaming of files.  All modules
are now named mod*.[ch].

Either not needed anymore, or defined in the board/_hal_conf.h file.

Tweaked a couple of the USB files to compile if neither dev nor host was defined.
Tested on netduiono plus 2 and stm32f4discovery boards

MICROPY_ENABLE_FLOAT is automatically set in mpconfig.h if MICROPY_FLOAT_IMPL
is set to a non-zero value.

mp_module_obj_t can now be put in ROM.

Configuration of float type is now similar to longint: can now choose
none, float or double as the implementation.

math module has basic math functions.  For STM port, these are not yet
implemented (they are just stub functions).

Some functionality is still missing (eg and, or, bit shift), and some
things are buggy (eg subtract).

This commit also introduces board directories and moves board
specific config into the appropriate board directory.

boards/stm32f4xx-af.csv was extracted from the STM32F4xx datasheet
and hand-tweaked.

make-pins.py takes boards/stm32f4xx-af.csv, boards/stm32f4xx-prefix.c,
and boards/BOARD-NAME/pins.csv as input and generates the file
build/pins_BOARD_NAME.c

The generated pin file for PYBOARD4 looks like this:
https://gist.github.com/dhylands/9063231

The generated pins file includes all of the supported alternate
functions, and includes upsupported alternate functions as comments.

See the commnet block at the top of stm/pin_map.c for details on
how to use the pin mapper.

I also went ahead and modified stm/gpio.c to use the pin mapper.

For some reason, STM port, while it's 32 bit, needs %lu and %ld for
printing machine_uint_t and machine_int_t.

Note: none of these functions are used by STM port, so they're provided
to have parity with pre gc refactor status quo, and in case they will be
needed in the future by some extension writers.

This also fixes up the IRQ for the PYBOARD4 USERSW
although I was unable to test that functionality.
