- Move typelevel interrupts to a special-purpose mod: `embassy_xx::interrupt::typelevel`.
- Reexport the PAC interrupt enum in `embassy_xx::interrupt`.
This has a few advantages:
- The `embassy_xx::interrupt` module is now more "standard".
- It works with `cortex-m` functions for manipulating interrupts, for example.
- It works with RTIC.
- the interrupt enum allows holding value that can be "any interrupt at runtime", this can't be done with typelevel irqs.
- When "const-generics on enums" is stable, we can remove the typelevel interrupts without disruptive changes to `embassy_xx::interrupt`.

So we're going to do just that!
- BufferedUarte is lock-free now. No PeripheralMutex.
- The "restart DMA on line idle to flush it" hack is GONE. This means
- It'll work correctly without RTS/CTS now.
- It'll have better throughput when using RTS/CTS.
It's a perfectly fine thing to do, should be just a noop. Erroring is
really annoying when you're writing a payload to uart that might
be zero-length or not.
This commit removes some of the code duplication for UarteWithIdle at the expense of requiring a split. As the example illustrates though, this expense seems worth the benefit in terms of maintenance, and the avoidance of copying over methods. My main motivation for this commit was actually due to the `event_endtx` method not having been copied across.
Old code used `cfg_if!` because rustc still parses code inside disabled cfg's, and Rust stable at that time couldn't parse the new GAT where-clause location. This is not the case anymore.
Allow creating UarteRx/UarteTx directly. This allows using uart unidirectionally
(rx-only or tx-only), without having to 'waste' a pin for the unused direction.
- Move Interrupt and InterruptExecutor from `embassy` to `embassy-cortex-m`.
- Move Unborrow from `embassy` to `embassy-hal-common` (nothing in `embassy` requires it anymore)
- Move PeripheralMutex from `embassy-hal-common` to `embassy-cortex-m`.
613: Rust stable support r=Dirbaio a=Dirbaio
This PR adds (limited) stable Rust support!
The drawbacks are:
- No `#[embassy::task]`, `#[embassy::main]`. (requires `type_alias_impl_trait`). You have to manually allocate the tasks somewhere they'll live forever. See [example](https://github.com/embassy-rs/embassy/blob/master/examples/nrf/src/bin/raw_spawn.rs)
- No async trait impls (requires GATs). Note that the full API surface of HALs is still available through inherent methods: #552#581
- Some stuff is not constructible in const (requires `const_fn_trait_bound`), although there's an (ugly) workaround for the generic `Mutex`.
So it's not that bad in the end, it's fully usable for shipping production-ready firmwares. We'll still recommend nightly as the default, until GATs and `type_alias_impl_trait` are stable.

This commit allows event_endtx to be used outside of the Uarte itself. As a consequence, PPI can be used to drive tasks given the end of transmission on the Uarte. This is particularly useful for situations like RS485 where a GPIO must be set to high when transmitting then cleared when done. A non-ppi approach can cause a delay in the clearing of this GPIO as other Embassy tasks might become scheduled.
A new `split` method is introduced such that the Uarte tx and rx can be used from separate tasks. An MPSC is used to illustrate how data may be passed between these tasks.
