The first partition is mounted as "/sd" and subsequent partitions are
mounted as "/sd<part_num>".  This is backwards compatible with the previous
behaviour, which just mounted the first partition on "/sd".

At this point, only FatFs filesystems are mounted.

Also works for non-networked builds (like minimal).

The stack pointer should start pointing 1 byte past the top of the end of
RAM.

stmhal has MULTI_PARTITION enabled for FatFs and so these values need to be
initialised.

vfs.h is for generic VFS declarations, and vfs_fat.h is for VfsFat
specific things.

Everyone should now be using the new ooFatFs library.  The old one is no
longer supported and will be removed.

Replaced by MICROPY_VFS and the VFS sub-system.

It can be useful for low-level lookup of paths by ports.

From https://github.com/micropython/oofatfs, branch work-R0.12b,
commit 46fb53331e7a583c29a41d37ce4b53f2718597e5.

A signal is like a pin, but ca also be inverted (active low). As such, it
abstracts properties of various physical devices, like LEDs, buttons,
relays, buzzers, etc. To instantiate a Signal:

pin = machine.Pin(...)
signal = machine.Signal(pin, inverted=True)

signal has the same .value() and __call__() methods as a pin.

For polymorphic interfacing on C level.

socket.error is deprecated even in upstream:
https://docs.python.org/3/library/socket.html#socket.error,
and never was a part of MicroPython socket API.

This was apparently of an ::only directive which was later removed.
