Draft: Working towards pdb debugging support.

[andrewleech]

Details TBD

Requires: micropython/micropython#8767

[andrewleech]

BDB Tested with bdb-example-1.zip / https://gist.github.com/Averroes/a208c5883c601992de08
Output doesn't quite match cpython at this stage, but seems to mostly work.

• As expected, printing a local variable fails.
• breakpoints seem to be stopped on the previous line... breaking on a function name main didn't work (presumably because it tried to break on previous line number`
• pretty easy to crash
