Ulf Lilleengen ed2a87a262 Add embassy-boot
Embassy-boot is a simple bootloader that works together with an
application to provide firmware update capabilities with a minimal risk.

The bootloader consists of a platform-independent part, which implements
the swap algorithm, and a platform-dependent part (currently only for
nRF) that provides addition functionality such as watchdog timers
softdevice support.

# Flash bootloader
cargo flash --manifest-path ../../embassy-boot/nrf/Cargo.toml --release --features embassy-nrf/nrf52840 --chip nRF52840_xxAA
# Build 'b'
cargo build --release --features embassy-nrf/nrf52840 --bin b
# Generate binary for 'b'
cargo objcopy --release --features embassy-nrf/nrf52840 --bin b -- -O binary b.bin
