UART object now uses a stream-like interface: read, readall, readline,
readinto, readchar, write, writechar.
Timeouts are configured when the UART object is initialised, using
timeout and timeout_char keyword args.
The object includes optional read buffering, using interrupts. You can set
the buffer size dynamically using read_buf_len keyword arg. A size of 0
disables buffering.
In tests/pyb is now a suite of tests that tests the pyb module on the
pyboard. They include expected output files because we can't run
CPython on the pyboard to compare against.
run-tests script has now been updated to allow pyboard tests to be run.
Just pass the option --pyboard. This runs all basic, float and pyb
tests. Note that float/math-fun.py currently fails because not all math
functions are implemented in stmhal/.
