Python2 is end-of-life [1] since the 1st of January 2020.
Some distributions (most notably: Debian and its derivatives) will stop
providing a `python` executable in order to encourage users to specify
the interpreter language of local scripts explicitly. Users of such
environments will be forced to work around this in one of these ways:
* create a virtual environment or
* manipulate the shebangs of the scripts or
* install the python2 package (as long as it is provided by distributions)
All currently maintained distribution releases provide python3.
In the near future distributions will need to remove python2, since it
is not maintained anymore.
PEP-394 [2] recommends to reference a specific python version
(python2 or python3), if the script is not expected to run in a virtual
environment.
Closes: #1265

* moved lpc43xx scripts to explicitly call python2, they have not been
ported, and are effectively unmaintained, but switching them to
python3 unconditionally would be unhelpful.
- Use libopencm3-template instead of libopencm3-examples as reference
on how to include libopencm3 to your project.
- Sourceforge website removed since it's only used for the mailing lists
which are listed immediately above.
- Small fixes
This has hurt many many many people over it's lifetime, by confusing their
multilib toolchains. Simply drop it outright. People who _really_ know what
they're doing are still perfectly entitled to "install" portions of this
project in suitable locations for their own use.
Most changes are noise from doxygen.
Readme udpated to explain newer FP_FLAGS for m7
stm32f7 library is skipped if the toolchain doesn't support it yet.
Renamed every instance of variable CFLAGS in target specific Makefiles
to TGT_CFLAGS to free up CFLAGS for user defined compiler flags.
Added information in README.md about existence and usage of CFLAGS
environment variable in build process.
