[FL-2733] multitarget support for fbt (#2209)
* First part of multitarget porting
* Delete firmware/targets/f7/Inc directory
* Delete firmware/targets/f7/Src directory
* gpio: cli fixes; about: using version from HAL
* sdk: path fixes
* gui: include fixes
* applications: more include fixes
* gpio: ported to new apis
* hal: introduced furi_hal_target_hw.h; libs: added one_wire
* hal: f18 target
* github: also build f18 by default
* typo fix
* fbt: removed extra checks on app list
* api: explicitly bundling select mlib headers with sdk
* hal: f18: changed INPUT_DEBOUNCE_TICKS to match f7
* cleaned up commented out code
* docs: added info on hw targets
* docs: targets: formatting fixes
* f18: fixed link error
* f18: fixed API version to match f7
* docs: hardware: minor wording fixes
* faploader: added fw target check
* docs: typo fixes
* github: not building komi target by default
* fbt: support for `targets` field for built-in apps
* github: reworked build flow to exclude app_set; fbt: removed komi-specific appset; added additional target buildset check
* github: fixed build; nfc: fixed pvs warnings
* attempt to fix target id
* f7, f18: removed certain HAL function from public API
* apps: debug: enabled bt_debug_app for f18
* Targets: backport input pins configuration routine from F7 to F18

## What a Firmware Target is
Flipper's firmware is modular and supports different hardware configurations in a common code base. It encapsulates hardware-specific differences in `furi_hal`, board initialization code, linker files, SDK data and other information in a _target definition_.
Target-specific files are placed in a single sub-folder in `firmware/targets`. It must contain a target definition file, `target.json`, and may contain other files if they are referenced by current target's definition. By default, `fbt` gathers all source files in target folder, unless they are explicitly excluded.
Targets can inherit most code parts from other targets, to reduce common code duplication.
## Target Definition File
A target definition file, `target.json`, is a JSON file that can contain the following fields:
* `include_paths`: list of strings, folder paths relative to current target folder to add to global C/C++ header path lookup list.
* `sdk_header_paths`: list of strings, folder paths relative to current target folder to gather headers from for including in SDK.
* `startup_script`: filename of a startup script, performing initial hardware initialization.
* `linker_script_flash`: filename of a linker script for creating the main firmware image.
* `linker_script_ram`: filename of a linker script to use in "updater" build configuration.
* `linker_script_app`: filename of a linker script to use for linking .fap files.
* `sdk_symbols`: filename of a .csv file containing current SDK configuration for this target.
* `linker_dependencies`: list of libraries to link the firmware with. Note that those not in the list won't be built by `fbt`. Also several link passes might be needed, in such case you may need to specify same library name twice.
* `inherit`: string, specifies hardware target to borrow main configuration from. Current configuration may specify additional values for parameters that are lists of strings, or override values that are not lists.
* `excluded_sources`: list of filenames from the inherited configuration(s) NOT to be built.
* `excluded_headers`: list of headers from the inherited configuration(s) NOT to be included in generated SDK.
* `excluded_modules`: list of strings specifying fbt library (module) names to exclude from being used to configure build environment.
## Applications & Hardware
Not all applications are available on different hardware targets.
* For applications built into the firmware, you have to specify a compatible application set using `FIRMWARE_APP_SET=...` fbt option. See [fbt docs](./fbt.md#firmware-application-set) for details on build configurations.
* For applications built as external .faps, you have to explicitly specify compatible targets in application's manifest, `application.fam`. For example, to limit application to a single target, add `targets=["f7"],` to the manifest. It won't be built for other targets.
For details on application manifests, check out [their docs page](./AppManifests.md).
## Building Firmware for a Specific Target
You have to specify TARGET_HW (and, optionally, FIRMWARE_APP_SET) for `fbt` to build firmware for non-default target. For example, building and flashing debug firmware for f18 can be done with
./fbt TARGET_HW=18 flash_usb_full
