This commit adds support to the `marshal` module to be able to dump
functions that have child functions. For example:
import marshal
def f():
def child():
return 1
return child
marshal.dumps(f.__code__)
It also covers the case of marshalling functions that use list
comprehensions, because a list comprehension uses a child function.
This is made possible by the newly enhanced
`mp_raw_code_save_fun_to_bytes()` that can now handle nested functions.
Unmarshalling via `marshal.loads()` already supports nested functions
because it uses the standard `mp_raw_code_load_mem()` function which is
used to import mpy files (and hence can handle all possibilities).

This commit implements a small subset of the CPython `marshal` module. It
implements `marshal.dumps()` and `marshal.loads()`, but only supports
(un)marshalling code objects at this stage. The semantics match CPython,
except that the actual marshalled bytes is not compatible with CPython's
marshalled bytes.
The module is enabled at the everything level (only on the unix coverage
build at this stage).
