ports/renesas-ra/boards/VK-RA6M3: Another New Board. - #10752

Thanks for your contribution, @mbedNoobNinja .

Could you check this code?
I think 0x100000 should be 0x10000 because 32KB block starts from 0x10000.

Nice catch @TakeoTakahashi2020 🙏, thank you for your observation, you are correct! I didn't count the zeros and somehow missed it, but it's fixed now.

Hello @mbedNoobNinja -San,

#define MICROPY_HW_BOARD_NAME "VK_RA6M3"

You would be able to use "VK-RA6M3" of the product name for this macro definition as well.

Hi @TakeoTakahashi2020 -San,

I set the name you suggested, and now I hope everything is fine.

Hi @dpgeorge I rebased the PR. Do you consider it's ready for merge, or it needs more work? This PR includes Ehternet support for M3 in it. In other words: the same as #12047 but for M3.

M3 gained LCD support. Now the board can take advantage of micropython-nano-gui lib. There is also touch support inspired from here but the user have to process the dots of its own (i.e. manually call the methods touched() / touches() of the LCD calss in the machine modue & see if the returned points are from the area of interest)

M3 gained CAM support. Now the board can take advantage of OV7725. Even more the CAM can now be displayed (or not) on the LCD with the CAM calss methods CAM.show_start(LCD) and CAM.show_stop(). Snapshots are also possible to be saved in the internal FLASH which subsequently can be downloaded on PC with mpremote. Methods are CAM.jpeg('filename') and CAM.yuyv('filename'). There are also a various effects that can be applied black and white, sepia etc.

This is an automated heads-up that we've just merged a Pull Request
that removes the STATIC macro from MicroPython's C API.

See #13763

A search suggests this PR might apply the STATIC macro to some C code. If it
does, then next time you rebase the PR (or merge from master) then you should
please replace all the STATIC keywords with static.

Although this is an automated message, feel free to @-reply to me directly if
you have any questions about this.
