Damien George 04b9147e15 Add license header to (almost) all files.
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/.

Damien George 32bef315be py, gc: Only zero out the extra bytes at the end of the heap chunk.
This is a small optimisation to zero out only the additional bytes that
the caller did not ask for.

Damien George daab651c5c py, gc: Zero out newly allocated blocks in the GC.
Also add some more debugging output to gc_dump_alloc_table().

Now that newly allocated heap is always zero'd, maybe we just make this
a policy for the uPy API to keep it simple (ie any new implementation of
memory allocation must zero all allocations).  This follows the D
language philosophy.

Before this patch, a previously used memory block which had pointers in
it may still retain those pointers if the new user of that block does
not actually use the entire block.  Eg, if I want 5 blocks worth of
heap, I actually get 8 (round up to nearest 4).  Then I never use the
last 3, so they keep their old values, which may be pointers pointing to
the heap, hence preventing GC.

In rare (or maybe not that rare) cases, this leads to long, unintentional
"linked lists" within the GC'd heap, filling it up completely.  It's
pretty rare, because you have to reuse exactly that memory which is part
of this "linked list", and reuse it in just the right way.

This should fix issue #522, and might have something to do with
issue #510.

Paul Sokolovsky c86889dafb gc: "new" gc_realloc: Rewrite in plain C, fixing bunch of bugs.
There were typos, various rounding errors trying to do concurrent counting
in bytes vs blocks, complex conditional paths, superfluous variables, etc.,
etc., all leading to obscure segfaults.

Paul Sokolovsky 44739e280e Make DEBUG_printf() a proper function, implementation is port-dependent.
In particular, unix outputs to stderr, to allow to run testsuite against
micropython built with debug output (by redirecting stderr to /dev/null).

Damien d99b05282d Change object representation from 1 big union to individual structs.
A big change.  Micro Python objects are allocated as individual structs
with the first element being a pointer to the type information (which
is itself an object).  This scheme follows CPython.  Much more flexible,
not necessarily slower, uses same heap memory, and can allocate objects
statically.

Also change name prefix, from py_ to mp_ (mp for Micro Python).
