Angus Gratton 40e1c111e1 py/gc: Allow gc_free from inside a gc_sweep finalizer. ...

Do this by tracking being inside gc collection with a
separate flag, GC_COLLECT_FLAG. In gc_free(),
ignore this flag when determining if the heap is locked.

* For finalisers calling gc_free() when heap is otherwise unlocked,
  this allows memory to be immediately freed (potentially
  avoiding a MemoryError).

* Hard IRQs still can't call gc_free(), as heap will be locked via
  gc_lock().

* If finalisers are disabled then all of this code can be compiled
  out to save some code size.
