Jim Mussared 3533924c36 extmod/moddeflate: Add deflate module providing the DeflateIO class.
This provides similar functionality to the former zlib.DecompIO and
especially CPython's gzip.GzipFile for both compression and decompression.

This class can be used directly, and also can be used from Python to
implement (via io.BytesIO) zlib.decompress and zlib.compress, as well as
gzip.GzipFile.

Enable/disable this on all ports/boards that zlib was previously configured
for.

README.md

This is experimental, community-supported port for Cortex-M emulation as provided by QEMU (http://qemu.org).

The purposes of this port are to enable:

  1. Continuous integration
    • run tests against architecture-specific parts of code base
  2. Experimentation
    • simulation & prototyping of anything that has architecture-specific code
    • exploring instruction set in terms of optimising some part of MicroPython or a module
  3. Streamlined debugging
    • no need for JTAG or even an MCU chip itself
    • no need to use OpenOCD or anything else that might slow down the process in terms of plugging things together, pressing buttons, etc.

This port will only work with the [GNU ARM Embedded Toolchain]( https://developer.arm.com/downloads/-/arm-gnu-toolchain-downloads and not with CodeSourcery toolchain. You will need to modify LDFLAGS if you want to use CodeSourcery's version of arm-none-eabi. The difference is that CodeSourcery needs -T generic-m-hosted.ld while ARM's version requires --specs=nano.specs --specs=rdimon.specs to be passed to the linker.

To build and run image with builtin testsuite:

make -f Makefile.test test
