First-class REPL, ussl module, machine module for WiPy, stuffed-floats
This release brings first-class REPL support, which now has tab completion,
auto-indent, paste mode, history and _ to hold the last computed value.
There is a new ussl module, and one can now build a standalone unix binary.
The new machine API is implemented in cc3200, with the machine module and
additions to time and os modules. stmhal contains the beginnings of this
new API, while still retaining full backwards compatibility with the original
pyb API. unix also includes the new time functions, sleep_ms, sleep_us,
ticks_ms, ticks_us and ticks_diff. A new object representation is available
which stores single-precision floats within a machine word (using 30-bit
precision), and allows to use float objects without the heap (not enabled in
any port). There are also bug fixes and general improvements.
