This commit adds a new command line switch to inform the RV32 emitter to use Zba opcodes in its output. A new implementation-specific option was introduced, called "-march-flags", that will contain a list of additional architecture-specific flags to pass to the chosen native emitter implementation. At the moment only the RV32 emitter can make use of this command line facility: if the architecture flags string equals to "zba" (case-sensitive), then the native emitter will emit Zba opcodes if it has a chance to do so. At the moment there is no check on whether additional architecture flags using to build a MPY file are compatible with the target the output code is run on, so use this with caution.

MicroPython cross compiler
This directory contains the MicroPython cross compiler, which runs under any Unix-like system and compiles .py scripts into .mpy files.
Build it as usual:
$ make
The compiler is called mpy-cross. Invoke it as:
$ ./mpy-cross foo.py
This will create a file foo.mpy which can then be copied to a place accessible
by the target MicroPython runtime (eg onto a pyboard's filesystem), and then
imported like any other Python module using import foo.
Different target runtimes may require a different format of the compiled bytecode, and such options can be passed to the cross compiler.
If the Python code contains @native or @viper annotations, then you must
specify -march to match the target architecture.
Run ./mpy-cross -h to get a full list of options.
