v0.18.0

This release is the combination of more than two months of work, including improvements to reflection, a big change to the PWM API to make it more powerful (including support for servos!), support for command line parameters and environment variables, many improvements to SAM and STM32 chip support. It also saw the addition of various new boards.

Note that this release drops support for Go 1.11 and Go 1.12, so if you're using one of those versions please upgrade to Go 1.13 or later.
