This is necessary to avoid watchdog timeout in long i2c.scan(), as
previously machine_i2c.c would call MICROPY_EVENT_POLL_HOOK if
MICROPY_EVENT_POLL_HOOK_FAST was not available.
Compared to previous implementation, this implementation removes the
ets_event_poll() function and calls the SDK function ets_loop_iter() from
MICROPY_INTERNAL_EVENT_HOOK instead. This allows using the port-agnostic
functions in more places.
There is a small behaviour change, which is that the event loop gets
iterated in a few more places (i.e. anywhere that mp_event_handle_nowait()
is called). However, this looks like maybe only modselect.c - and is
probably good to process Wi-Fi events in that polling loop.

uart.flush()
flush() will wait until all characters but the last one have been sent.
It returns while the last character is sent. If needed, the calling
code has to add one character wait time. To avoid a permanent lock,
a timeout applies depending on the size of the FIFO and the baud rate.
ret = uart.txdone()
ret is True if no transfer is in progress. It returns already True when
the last byte of a transfer is sent.
ret is False otherwise.
This patch makes it so that UART(0) can by dynamically attached to and
detached from the REPL by using the uos.dupterm function. Since WebREPL
uses dupterm slot 0 the UART uses dupterm slot 1 (a slot which is newly
introduced by this patch). UART(0) must now be attached manually in
boot.py (or otherwise) and inisetup.py is changed to provide code to do
this. For example, to attach use:
import uos, machine
uart = machine.UART(0, 115200)
uos.dupterm(uart, 1)
and to detach use:
uos.dupterm(None, 1)
When attached, all incoming chars on UART(0) go straight to stdin so
uart.read() will always return None. Use sys.stdin.read() if it's needed
to read characters from the UART(0) while it's also used for the REPL (or
detach, read, then reattach). When detached the UART(0) can be used for
other purposes.
If there are no objects in any of the dupterm slots when the REPL is
started (on hard or soft reset) then UART(0) is automatically attached.
Without this, the only way to recover a board without a REPL would be to
completely erase and reflash (which would install the default boot.py which
attaches the REPL).
This is to keep the top-level directory clean, to make it clear what is
core and what is a port, and to allow the repository to grow with new ports
in a sustainable way.
