On some NXP LPC MCUs (such as LPC11U6x), a valid firmware image must
include a checksum in the 7th entry of the ARM Cortex-M0 exception
vector table. This checksum is verified by the bootloader.
The lpc_checksum.py python script allows to insert this checksum into
the firmware images (BIN and HEX formats).

Split up requirements.txt into several files so that CI tools can
utilize/reference the specific requirements-<FOO>.txt they may need
while keep things in sync with the development. This is to reduce
both time and amount of work CI actions due to python package install.
Create the following groupings:
1. BASE - needed to build or create zephyr images
2. BUILD-TEST - need to run compile/build tests
3. DOC - need to build the docs
4. RUN-TEST - need for runtime testing
5. EXTRAS - optional or useful for development/developers workflow
Also tried to add a comment about what or why a given package is being
pulled in for.
