This change increases XIP read speed to ~30Mbytes/s at 50MHz DDR:
- Enable continuous mode.
- Remove hard-coded settings.
- Set XIP continuous mode timeout.
The prefetch remains disabled. Although enabling the prefetch gives the
best performance for the CPU in XIP mode, it must be disabled when the NPU
accesses the OSPI flash.

Leaving this pin low in combination with the default EM settings enables
flash protection for the EM flash.

The default dummy cycles may not match the actual flash frequency supported
by a certain board. For example, the MX chip uses 20 dummy cycles by
default which supports up to 200MHz DDR, but the maximum frequency
supported by the AE3 board is 50MHz DDR. So the dummy cycles for this
board can be as low as 6. It's important to set the correct dummy cycles,
as it results in doubling the XIP read speed, in the case of the AE3 board.

This commit adds the beginning of a new alif port with support for Alif
Ensemble MCUs. See https://alifsemi.com/
Supported features of this port added by this commit:
- UART REPL.
- TinyUSB support, for REPL and MSC.
- Octal SPI flash support, for filesystem.
- machine.Pin support.
General notes about the port:
- It uses make, similar to other bare-metal ports here.
- The toolchain is the standard arm-none-eabi- toolchain.
- Flashing a board can be done using either the built-in serial bootloader,
or JLink (both supported here).
- There are two required submodules (one for drivers/SDK, one for security
tools), both of which are open source and on GitHub.
- No special hardware or software is needed for development, just a board
connected over USB.
OpenMV have generously sponsored the development of this port.

The cyw43-driver now provides the Bluetooth initialisation code, making
`drivers/cyw43/cywbt.c` obsolete. To use the new code a port must enable
the `CYW43_ENABLE_BLUETOOTH_OVER_UART` option.
Some ports have yet to migrate to the new code, so in the meantime they can
explicitly add the old source to their source list and continue to use it
without change.

Configure flash timings dynamically to match the system clock. Reconfigure
timings after flash writes.
Changes are:
- ports/rp2/main.c: Set default flash timings.
- ports/rp2/modmachine.c: Configure optimal flash timings on freq change.
- ports/rp2/rp2_flash.c: Reconfigure flash when leaving critical section.

Add a 256 byte (FLASH_PAGE_SIZE) SRAM copy buffer to allow copies from
PSRAM to flash. This would otherwise hardfault since PSRAM is disabled
when doing a write to flash.
Changes are:
- ports/rp2/rp2_flash.c: Add 256 byte (flash page size) SRAM copy buffer
for PSRAM to flash copies.
- ports/rp2/rp2_flash.c: Invalidate the XIP cache to purge any PSRAM
data before critical flash operations.

PSRAM will be used exclusively if MICROPY_GC_SPLIT_HEAP == 0, it will be
added to RAM if MICROPY_GC_SPLIT_HEAP == 1, and the system will fall back
to RAM only if it's not detected.
Due to the size of PSRAM, GC stack was overflowing and causing the GC to
scan through the entire memory pool. This caused noticable slowdowns
during GC. Increase the stack from 256 to 4096 bytes to avoid overflow and
increase the stack entry type size to accomodate 8MB+ PSRAM.
Changes are:
- ports/rp2/mpconfigport.h: Make split-heap optional and enable by default.
- ports/rp2/mpconfigport.h: Increase GC stack entry type to uint32_t.
- ports/rp2/mpconfigport.h: Raise GC stack size.

Performs a best-effort attempt to detect attached PSRAM, configure it and
*add* it to the MicroPython heap. If PSRAM is not present, should fall
back to use internal RAM.
Introduce two new port/board defines:
- MICROPY_HW_ENABLE_PSRAM to enable PSRAM.
- MICROPY_HW_PSRAM_CS_PIN to define the chip-select pin (required).
Changes are:
- ports/rp2/rp2_psram.[ch]: Add new PSRAM module.
- ports/rp2/main.c: Add optional PSRAM support.
- ports/rp2/CMakeLists.txt: Include rp2_psram.c.
- ports/rp2/mpconfigport.h: Add MICROPY_HW_ENABLE_PSRAM.
- ports/rp2/modmachine.c: Reconfigure PSRAM on freq change.

Currently the tool allows writing an invalid ROMFS image, with a bad header
or images smaller than minimum size, and only checks the image extension.
This commit allows deploying a ROMFS with either a ".img" or ".romfs"
extension (in the future support may be added for other extensions that
have different semantics, eg a manifest), and validates the image header
before writing.

If picotool is not installed, it's fetched and built when compiling each
rp2 board. And the "develop" branch of picotool is used instead of a
release. Installing it manually using the "master" branch means the latest
released version is used (instead of a possibly unstable development
version), and also makes building each rp2 board a little faster.

This is a known limitation, so better to give a clear warning than a
catch-all AssertionError. Happens for example when trying to use
soft-float on ARCH=armv6m
Also give more details on the assertion for unknown relocations, such that
one can see which symbol it affects etc, to aid in debugging.
