Need method to compile micropython locally

[cpottle9]

I need a way to compile my own micropython interpreter for badger2040W locally (raspberry PI 4). Specifically, there is a pull request in the main micropython repo I need that has not been merged. It is https://github.com/micropython/micropython/pull/10803.

I was able to figure out how to do this about 3 weeks ago when the micropython interpreter was built out of pimoroni-pico. I am also building micropython for inkyframe 4.0 out of pimoroni-pico.

Ideally, Pimoroni needs to put your code in the main Micropython Project repo. This process of needing code from 3 different repo that lineup is problematic.

I know you will give up some control over when your changes get merged. But life will be simpler for anyone make changes to micropython for your platforms.

Note: I had discussions on Pimoroni forums about there here https://forums.pimoroni.com/t/compile-micropython-from-source-for-badger-2040w-and-inky-frame-4-0/21683
