Define a gpio for input (or output) only ?

Is it possible to restrict a GPIO in board.py to support input (or output) only ?
Some of ESP32 GPIO's support only one direction.
Optional we could check this in jshardware.c.

I'm afraid not - throwing exceptions from within jshPinSetState could be a bit awkward as well. It might be better just to ignore it :S

You can at least define 'notes' next to the pins in BOARD.py so that the Pin diagram mentions that there's an issue (check the Pico for an example)
