If the GPIO is in an output state, gpio_init() can return 0 without bad
consequences.
-1 was return until now.

Calling the initialization function ensures that the dummy lwIP library is used instead of the real lwIP, even if the esp_wifi module for esp8266 is not used.
The documentation had to be changed due to the relation of module `esp_now` to `esp_wifi` module. In addition, a number of corrections have been made. In the case of documentation, it is impossible to do this in various commits.
The default macros GPIO_PIN and GPIO_UNDEF do not have to be overridden. The GPIO_PIN macro definition was even wrong for 40 GPIOs without splitting into ports, even if that did not lead to erroneous behavior.
Add support for specifying data bits, stop bits and parity at
runtime.
Introduce feature periph_uart_modecfg for uart_mode() till all
other CPUs implement it.
STM32 L1, F1, F2, F4 supports following modes:
* 7E1, 7E2
* 7O1, 7O2
* 8N1, 8N2
* 8E1, 8E2
* 8O1, 8O2
STM32 L0, L4, F0, F3, F7 supports following modes:
* 6E1, 6E2
* 6O1, 6O2
* 7E1, 7E2
* 7O1, 7O2
* 7N1, 7N2
* 8N1, 8N2
* 8E1, 8E2
* 8O1, 8O2
Use USART_CR1_M1 macro to detect 7-bit support because
even inside one family there could be devices that don't
support 7-bit mode. So just using a family macro is not
enough.
As stated in the datasheets for L0, L4, F0, F3, F7 devices,
data bits can only be changed when UART is disabled (UE=0).
Introduce uart_stop() routine to satisfy this requirement.
STM32 UART adds parity to the MSB of a byte to send. The same
also applies to the received bytes. As a result this bit must
be masked in order to get the pure data.

Checking by the send function that at least two maximum size Ethernet frames fit in the remaining heap before the LwIP packet buffer is allocated seems to increase stability. This can be caused by the fact that WLAN hardware interrupts allocate additional memory when receiving a frame during the send attempt.
Error case:
1. thread_yield_higher() stores the thread's ucontext
2. creates an "isr ucontext" for isr_thread_yield, switches to it
Case 1: no signals are pending, continues in isr_thread_yield()
3a. sched_run is called
4a. return to sched_active_thread ucontext
Case 2: signals pending (the crashing scenario), continues in native_irq_handler()
3b. handles signals
4b. if sched_context_switch_request is set, call sched_run
5b. return to sched_active_thread ucontext
4b misses the call to sched_run(), leading to a possible return into a
non-ready thread.
The situation where the firmware `lwIP` packet buffer is exhausted is an important indication that the traffic sent to and sent from the esp8266 is more than the esp8266 is able to handle. Therefore, it should be an error message.
