The STATIC macro was introduced a very long time ago in commit
d5df6cd44a. The original reason for this was
to have the option to define it to nothing so that all static functions
become global functions and therefore visible to certain debug tools, so
one could do function size comparison and other things.
This STATIC feature is rarely (if ever) used. And with the use of LTO and
heavy inline optimisation, analysing the size of individual functions when
they are not static is not a good representation of the size of code when
fully optimised.
So the macro does not have much use and it's simpler to just remove it.
Then you know exactly what it's doing. For example, newcomers don't have
to learn what the STATIC macro is and why it exists. Reading the code is
also less "loud" with a lowercase static.
One other minor point in favour of removing it, is that it stops bugs with
`STATIC inline`, which should always be `static inline`.
Methodology for this commit was:
1) git ls-files | egrep '\.[ch]$' | \
xargs sed -Ei "s/(^| )STATIC($| )/\1static\2/"
2) Do some manual cleanup in the diff by searching for the word STATIC in
comments and changing those back.
3) "git-grep STATIC docs/", manually fixed those cases.
4) "rg -t python STATIC", manually fixed codegen lines that used STATIC.

We mark all protocols with their type using MP_PROTO_IMPLEMENT,
and checking in mp_get_stream{,_raise}.
This was not turning up as a problem in tests until a (new, not yet
commited) change to jpegio caused a segfault because a type implementing
a different protocol was passed in to mp_get_stream.
By using 0 (instead of MP_QSTR_protocol_stream) as the marker for
objects implementing the standard micropython stream protocol, the
number of CIRCUITPY-CHANGEs is minimized.
Updates any includes, and references from Makefiles/CMake.
This essentially reverts what was done long ago in commit
136b5cbd76
