Data transfer

The data transfer is managed through transmit and receive data registers and a shift
register.
Reception
The SDA input fills the shift register. After the 8th SCL pulse (when the complete data byte is
received), the shift register is copied into I2C_RXDR register if it is empty (RXNE=0). If
RXNE=1, meaning that the previous received data byte has not yet been read, the SCL line
is stretched low until I2C_RXDR is read. The stretch is inserted between the 8th and 9th
SCL pulse (before the Acknowledge pulse).
