* device/arm: add system timer registers
Add SYST registers and bit definitions to device/arm.
Add a setup function.
Add an example that uses it to blink an LED.
* runtime/atsamd51: fix clock init code
The DPLL0 initialization should set LDRFRAC and LDR, not LDRFRAC twice.
Also explain what the magic numbers are doing.
This makes it possible to query these environment variables from
anywhere, which might be useful. More importantly, it puts them in a
central location from where they can be queried, useful for a `go env`
subcommand.
Instead of specifying explicit commands, most of these commands have
been replaced by more specific properties.
This is work that will be necessary for an eventual -programmer flag to
the compiler, with which it is possible to select which programmer to
use to flash or debug a chip. That's not very useful for boards that
already include a programmer or bootloader for that purpose, but is very
useful for novel boards or single-purpose boards that are not already
included in TinyGo.
Previously, the cycle was broken by inserting an unsafe.Pointer type in
some places. This is of course incorrect, and makes debugging harder.
However, LLVM provides a way to make temporary nodes that are later
replaced, exactly for this purpose.
This commit uses those temporary metadata nodes to allow such recursive
types.
Comparing slices against nil currently causes the slice to escape, due
to a limitation in LLVM 8. This leads to lots of unnecessary heap
allocations. With LLVM 9 and some modifications to TinyGo, this should
be fixed. However, this commit is an easy win right now.
Returning an error when both slices are nil is not necessary, when the
check is left out it should just do nothing.
For updating an SPI screen using the st7735 driver, this results in a
~7% performance win.
Instead of configuring machine.I2C0, machine.I2C1, etc. statically,
allow the pins to be set using machine.I2CConfig. This will also
automatically configure the correct pin mode for each pin instead of
having to specify that manually.
An optimization introduced in a04db67ea9
seems to have broken arduino uno compiled hex. Setting optimzation
flags to 1, 2, or s builds proper hex binaries though.
These patches have been the result of troubleshooting over slack:

This implements the copy() built-in function. It may not work in all
cases, but should work in most cases.
This commit gets the following 3 packages to compile, according to
tinygo-site/imports/main.go:
* encoding/base32
* encoding/base64
* encoding/pem (was blocked by encoding/base64)
Unfortunately, while doing this I found that it doesn't actually apply
in any real-world programs (tested with `make smoketest`), apparently
because nil pointer checking messes with the functionattrs pass. I hope
to fix that after moving to LLVM 9, which has an optimization that makes
nil pointer checking easier to implement.
