- moving Makefile to parent folder. This resolves some of the weird path/build issues
- remove trace references to cpydiff and original file (no longer used anywhere)
- converting SOURCEDIR to a changeable variable, passed through all sphinx-build calls
- adding path to conf.py, in case it moves again
- making `-v` default with VERBOSE
- making `-E` default with FORCE
- creating BASEOPTS to store all the dirs, paths, and settings, passing them to sphinx-build in one long chain, instead of individually
- updating README to use the make command as default. Also added text explaining some of the customization you can add into a make command

There were several different spellings of MicroPython present in comments,
when there should be only one.

This is required to easily giving links to a particular difference case.
Also, add RST anchors to allow cases to cross-reference each other.

This patch introduces the a small framework to track differences between
uPy and CPython. The framework consists of:
- A set of "tests" which test for an individual feature that differs between
uPy and CPy. Each test is like a normal uPy test in the test suite, but
has a special comment at the start with some meta-data: a category (eg
syntax, core language), a human-readable description of the difference, a
cause, and a workaround. Following the meta-data there is a short code
snippet which demonstrates the difference. See tests/cpydiff directory
for the initial set of tests.
- A program (this patch) which runs all the tests (on uPy and CPy) and
generates nicely-formated .rst documenting the differences.
- Integration into the docs build so that everything is automatic, and the
differences appear in a way that is easy for users to read/reference (see
latter commits).
The idea with using this new framework is:
- When a new difference is found it's easy to write a short test for it,
along with a description, and add it to the existing ones. It's also easy
for contributors to submit tests for differences they find.
- When something is no longer different the tool will give an error and
difference can be removed (or promoted to a proper feature test).
