Add tools/pyboard.py, a simple module to communicate with the pyboard.

Using pyboard.py you can use Python running on your PC to execute
commands on the connected pyboard.  See examples in that file.

"""
pyboard interface
This module provides the Pyboard class, used to communicate with and
control the pyboard over a serial USB connection.
Example usage:
import pyboard
pyb = pyboard.Pyboard('/dev/ttyACM0')
pyb.enter_raw_repl()
pyb.exec('pyb.Led(1).on()')
pyb.exit_raw_repl()
