Multi-paradigm programming with GPIO Zero

Like Python itself, GPIO Zero is an API with multiple programming paradigms. Users can begin with a simple approach, and have the opportunity to expand into using more advanced techniques to achieve more.

Relies upon PIL to parse the initial JPEG structure and then does its own TIFF/Exif parsing because PIL's isn't up to dealing with the "full" Exif structure; looks like it gives up after IFD0.

Only tested with the V1 camera module, but I expect it'll work with either model. There's lots of stuff in here which isn't as efficient as it could be and a fair bit of cruft, but it's only a demo :)

Shadow.py

This is a rough'n'ready experiment to see if it's feasible to detect shadowed modules on import. A shadowed module is one where a user has inadvertently named a module the same as a module on the standard search path (a common example in education is "turtle.py" and my own unfortunately named "picamera.py" :).

If this module is imported, it tweaks the standard import machinery to check for such shadowing the first time a module is imported. If it finds any, it raises ShadowWarning (which descends from ImportWarning) giving the path of the imported module, and the path of the first module

opencv-python build scripts

This is all extremely hacky so you'll probably need to play around with it to get it working. On a fresh Raspbian Jessie or Raspbian Stretch install, add all the build-deps we usually have on a piwheels build slave (see https://github.com/bennuttall/piwheels/blob/master/deploy_slave.sh and install all the -dev stuff and python libs, basically). Next, add a 1Gb swap file.

In the default "pi" user, make a "packaging" directory and stuff opencv-python-build and opencv-setup.py under there. Make opencv-python-build executable and edit the for-loops
