Damien George 02db91a7a3 py: Split RAISE_VARARGS opcode into 3 separate ones.
From the beginning of this project the RAISE_VARARGS opcode was named and
implemented following CPython, where it has an argument (to the opcode)
counting how many args the raise takes:

    raise # 0 args (re-raise previous exception)
    raise exc # 1 arg
    raise exc from exc2 # 2 args (chained raise)

In the bytecode this operation therefore takes 2 bytes, one for
RAISE_VARARGS and one for the number of args.

This patch splits this opcode into 3, where each is now a single byte.
This reduces bytecode size by 1 byte for each use of raise.  Every byte
counts!  It also has the benefit of reducing code size (on all ports except
nanbox).

This directory contains tests for various functionality areas of MicroPython.
To run all stable tests, run "run-tests" script in this directory.

Tests of capabilities not supported on all platforms should be written
to check for the capability being present. If it is not, the test
should merely output 'SKIP' followed by the line terminator, and call
sys.exit() to raise SystemExit, instead of attempting to test the
missing capability. The testing framework (run-tests in this
directory, test_main.c in qemu_arm) recognizes this as a skipped test.

There are a few features for which this mechanism cannot be used to
condition a test. The run-tests script uses small scripts in the
feature_check directory to check whether each such feature is present,
and skips the relevant tests if not.

When creating new tests, anything that relies on float support should go in the
float/ subdirectory.  Anything that relies on import x, where x is not a built-in
module, should go in the import/ subdirectory.
