Damien George 50637ff239 extmod/vfs_rom: Add VfsRom filesystem object. ...

This commit defines a new ROMFS filesystem for storing read-only files that
can be memory mapped, and a new VfsRom driver.  Files opened from this
filesystem support the buffer protocol.  This allows naturally getting the
memory-mapped address of the file using:
- memoryview(file)
- uctypes.addressof(file)

Furthermore, if these files are .mpy files then their content can be
referenced in-place when importing.  Such imports take up a lot less RAM
than importing from a normal filesystem.  This is essentially dynamically
frozen .mpy files, building on the revamped v6 .mpy file format.
