py/emitnative: Emit shorter exception handler entry code on RV32.
This commit improves the RV32 code sequence that is emitted if a function needs to set up an exception handler as its prologue. The old code would clear a temporary register and then copy that value to places that needed to be initialised with zero values. On RV32 there's a dedicated register that's hardwired to be equal to zero, which allows us to bypass the extra register clear and use the zero register to initialise values.
