SPI bus transactions

[pythoncoder]

The Arduino implementation of SPI supports transactions, facilitating the connection of multiple devices with different SPI characteristics. Is it worth considering this for the Pyboard? The first reference has a good explanation of it (step 3).

As far as I can tell from reading the Arduino docs it seems that beginTransaction is just a shorthand for setting the clock divider, the clock phase and polarity, and the bit order (so saves you calling 3 separate functions). In uPy you can do this using spi.init.
