As introduced in #297, I created a python wrapper for littlefs. The wrapper supports two API's: A C-like API which is the same as in C and a more pythonic API which is easier to use if you are more the python guy. The wrapper is built with littlefs 2.2.1 at the moment.
In my point of view, file updates will commit to filesystem only when
sync or close. There is a extra word 'no' here.

Now with graphs! Images are stored on the branch gh-images in an effort
to avoid binary bloat in the git history.
Also spruced up SPEC.md and README.md and ran a spellechecker over the
documentation. Favorite typo so far was dependendent, which is, in fact,
not a word.
Interesting open-source projects that I've ran into around embedded
storage. May be interesting to others in the embedded space.
Added mklfs, SPIFFS, and Dhara.
Also a thanks to jolivepetrus for posting the mklfs tool he put
together.
The fact that the lookahead buffer uses bits instead of bytes is an
internal detail. Poking this through to the user API has caused a decent
amount of confusion. Most buffers are provided as bytes and the
inconsistency here can be surprising.
The use of bytes instead of bits also makes us forward compatible in
the case that we want to change the lookahead internal representation
(hint segment list).
Additionally, we change the configuration name to lookahead_size. This
matches other configurations, such as cache_size and read_size, while
also notifying the user that something important changed at compile time
(by breaking).
Mostly changed the wording around the goals/features of littlefs based
on feedback from other developers.
Also added in project links now that there are a few of those floating
around. And made the README a bit easier to navigate.
More documentation may still by worthwhile (design documentation?),
but for now this provides a reasonable baseline.
