This commit changes the concept of JerryScript port implementations
from a simple directory of C source files (which get injected among
the sources of `jerry-core`) into a proper static library (which
may be linked to an application together with `jerry-core`). As a
consequence, this commit introduces a new library to the
JerryScript component architecture: the sources of the default port
implementation form `jerry-port-default`.
Changes in more detail:
- The sources in `targets/default` are moved to `jerry-port/default`
and are turned into a proper static library.
- Actually, the default port implementation has two library
variants, one that implements the bare minimum only
(`jerry-port-default-minimal`) and one that has some extra
functionalities specific to this implementation (the "full"
`jerry-port-default`).
- The new libraries have an interface header in
`jerry-port/default/include`, which extends the common
`jerryscript-port.h` API with functions specific to these
libraries.
- All non-standard port functions have now the
`jerry_port_default_` prefix (this affects `jobqueue_init` and
`jobqueue_run`).
- The jobqueue implementation functions became config macro
independent: it is now the responsibility of the linker to pick
the needed objects from the library, and omit those (e.g.,
jobqueue-related code) that are not referenced.
- Build of the libraries can be controlled with the new
`JERRY_PORT_DEFAULT` cmake option.
- The cmake option `PORT_DIR` is dropped, and `PORT_DIR/*.c` is not
appended to `jerry-core` sources.
- Instead, the `jerry` tool of `jerry-main` links to
`jerry-port-default`, while `jerry-minimal` links to
`jerry-port-default-minimal`.
- `tests/unit-core` tests are also linked to
`jerry-port-default-minimal`.
- Tools adapted.
- `build.py` has `--jerry-port-default` instead of `--port-dir`.
- `check-*.sh` have paths updated (`jerry-port/default` instead
of `targets/default`).
- Miscellaneous.
- Dropped `#ifndef`s from `jerryscript-port.h`. It is a public
header of the `jerry-core` library, which means that it must
not contain configuration-dependent parts (once the library is
built with some config macros and the archive and the headers
are installed, there is no way for the header to tell what
those config macrose were).
- Added documentation comments to the JobQueue Port API (in
`jerryscript-port.h`) and to several default port
implementation functions (in `jerry-port/default`).

JerryScript: JavaScript engine for the Internet of Things
JerryScript is a lightweight JavaScript engine for resource-constrained devices such as microcontrollers. It can run on devices with less than 64 KB of RAM and less than 200 KB of flash memory.
Key characteristics of JerryScript:
- Full ECMAScript 5.1 standard compliance
- 160K binary size when compiled for ARM Thumb-2
- Heavily optimized for low memory consumption
- Written in C99 for maximum portability
- Snapshot support for precompiling JavaScript source code to byte code
- Mature C API, easy to embed in applications
