Summary
It's only used once, in the same file it's defined, and making it static reduces code size.
Along with this, the associated example code comment in
ports/unix/main.c
has been removed.Testing
CI will test this.
Trade-offs and Alternatives
This removes the public
mp_obj_new_type()
API function. But, I doubt that's ever used (@dlech?) and it's more important to optimise code size rather than make this a public facing function.(If it's really needed, it can be added as a static-inline wrapper.)
