Reset unused I2C pins to default when an instance is initialised

This change is specifically intended to avoid a pitfall in MicroPython and will likely have no effect in C++.

When using the REPL in MicroPython it's possible to set up an I2C instance on two pins - ie: 20, 21 - and then subsequently realise these are the wrong pins for your board.

Before this change, these pins would be left hanging even if you created a new I2C instance with new pins - ie: 4, 5 - this would lead to communications failures where they really shouldn't happen. Confusing!
