The aim of this commit is to clarify the command line options available.
While they are available as well as in the CLI with --help, it's useful to
document them and provide a few examples.

8978102f35 tests/run-tests.py: Change --target/--device options to --test-instance.
Previously to this commit, running the test suite on a bare-metal board
required specifying the target (really platform) and device, eg:

    $ ./run-tests.py --target pyboard --device /dev/ttyACM1

That's quite a lot to type, and you also need to know what the target
platform is, when a lot of the time you either don't care or it doesn't
matter.

This commit makes it easier to run the tests by replacing both of these
options with a single `--test-instance` (`-t` for short) option.  That
option specifies the executable/port/device to test.  Then the target
platform is automatically detected.

The `--test-instance` can be passed:
- "unix" (the default) to use the unix version of MicroPython
- "webassembly" to test the webassembly port
- anything else is considered a port/device to pass to Pyboard

There are also some shortcuts to specify a port/device, following
`mpremote`:
- a<n> is short for /dev/ttyACM<n>
- u<n> is short for /dev/ttyUSB<n>
- c<n> is short for COM<n>

For example:

    $ ./run-tests.py -t a1

Note that the default test instance is "unix" and so this commit does not
change the standard way to run tests on the unix port, by just doing
`./run-tests.py`.

As part of this change, the platform (and it's native architecture if it
supports importing native .mpy files) is show at the start of the test run.

4eaebc1988 docs/develop: Add MicroPython Internals chapter.
This commit adds many new sections to the existing "Developing and building
MicroPython" chapter to make it all about the internals of MicroPython.

This work was done as part of Google's Season of Docs 2020.
