If RTC is already running at boot then it's left alone. Otherwise, RTC is
started at boot but startup function returns straight away. RTC startup
is then finished the first time it is used. Fallback to LSI if LSE fails
to start in a certain time.
Also included:
MICROPY_HW_CLK_LAST_FREQ
hold pyb.freq() parameters in RTC backup reg
MICROPY_HW_RTC_USE_US
option to present datetime sub-seconds in microseconds
MICROPY_HW_RTC_USE_CALOUT
option to enable RTC calibration output
CLK_LAST_FREQ and RTC_USE_CALOUT are enabled for PYBv1.0.
In new hardware API, these classes implement master modes of interfaces,
and "mode" parameter is not accepted. Trying to implement new HW API
in terms of older pyb module leaves variuos corner cases:
In new HW API, I2C(1) means "I2C #1 in master mode" (? depends on
interpretation), while in old API, it means "I2C #1, with no settings
changes".
For I2C class, it's easy to make mode optional, because that's last
positional param, but for SPI, there's "baudrate" after it (which
is inconsistent with I2C, which requires "baudrate" to be kwonly-arg).
py/mphal.h contains declarations for generic mp_hal_XXX functions, such
as stdio and delay/ticks, which ports should provide definitions for. A
port will also provide mphalport.h with further HAL declarations.
