Arduino Lab for MicroPython 0.9.0

This is an entire rewrite of this editor, hence listing changes does not make any sense.
Please refer to the README.md file for a full description of features implemented compared to 0.8.0

Thanks everyone for the patience and the (almost always) constructive feedback in the issues reported :)

This release introduces major changes to the file manager as well as a large amount of bug-fixes and extended compatibility range.
The presence of folder navigation allows users to import libraries and modules into the board's lib folder, which is automatically created if not already present in the board's root.
Keeping libraries away from the root makes the whole directory listing cleaner and less prone to accidental damage.

The UI introduces some nice icons from our internal design system

These are the most interesting changes

• fixed disk files sorting
• Update UI elements
• Persist local folder path on localStorage
• New file management
• Fixed Windows path resolving
• many other bugs we bumped into or created ourselves

Big Thanks To

• Ernesto and Gabriele from our Design Team for the feedback on UX and the pretty UI elements
• Anyone inside Arduino who was patient and helpful 💟

Make sure you have the latest firmware build.
More boards being tested, feel free to submit issues

Mad Props to @murilopolese for working hard on the Micropython JS library and @iabdalkader for being always there to answer questions.
This technical build was not an easy one to achieve :)
