2014-04-09	stmhal: Improve help() function.	Damien George

2014-04-05	py: Change module globals from mp_map_t* to mp_obj_dict_t*.	Damien George
	Towards addressing issue #424. Had a small increase to ROM usage (order 60 bytes).
2014-03-30	Merge map.h into obj.h.	Damien George
	Pretty much everyone needs to include map.h, since it's such an integral part of the Micro Python object implementation. Thus, the definitions are now in obj.h instead. map.h is removed.
2014-03-29	py: Rename old const type objects to mp_type_* for consistency.	Damien George

2014-03-26	stmhal: Remove ExtiMeta object and clean up class constants.	Damien George

2014-03-26	Remove mp_obj_type_t.methods entry and use .locals_dict instead.	Damien George
	Originally, .methods was used for methods in a ROM class, and locals_dict for methods in a user-created class. That distinction is unnecessary, and we can use locals_dict for ROM classes now that we have ROMable maps. This removes an entry in the bloated mp_obj_type_t struct, saving a word for each ROM object and each RAM object. ROM objects that have a methods table (now a locals_dict) need an extra word in total (removed the methods pointer (1 word), no longer need the sentinel (2 words), but now need an mp_obj_dict_t wrapper (4 words)). But RAM objects save a word because they never used the methods entry. Overall the ROM usage is down by a few hundred bytes, and RAM usage is down 1 word per user-defined type/class. There is less code (no need to check 2 tables), and now consistent with the way ROM modules have their tables initialised. Efficiency is very close to equivaluent.
2014-03-26	Change mp_method_t.name from const char * to qstr.	Damien George
	Addresses issue #377.
