Allowing to use e.g. the Adafruit bootloaders with MicroPython. The .uf2
file is created in addition to the .bin and .hex files allowing to use the
latter ones without the bootloader for debugging and testing.
Changes:
- Set the location of the ISR Vector and .text segment to 0x6000C000 and
0x6000C400.
- Reserve an area at the start of ITCM for a copy of the interrupt vector
table and copy the table on reset to this place.
- Extend `machine.bootloader()` by setting the magic number to enable the
bootloader on reset.
- Create a .uf2 file which skips the segments below 0x6000C000.
The bootloader has to be installed as a preparation step using the board
specific methods, but then the firmware's .uf2 file version can be
installed using the bootloader. The bootloader can be invoked with:
- double reset
- calling machine.bootloader()
- Using the touch1200 method
Double reset is hard to achieve on MIMXRT boards, since there is no clean
reset pin. Some MIMXRT boards provide it by switching the power.
Some boards are excluded from the .uf2 build:
- MIMXRT1050_EVK: The uf2 bootloader is built for the QSPI version of the
board. MicroPython supports the Hyperflash version.
- MIMXRT1176_EVK: No support for this board yet, but it should be possible.

IDF 3 builds are very old now (it seems like the last successful builds are
from 2021), and the current IDF 5 is stable. So remove IDF 3 variants.

This allows the cc3200 port to be build with the standard autobuild script
rather than the custom build-cc3200-latest.sh (which is now removed).
This also fixes the path inside the zip file (by using the `-j` flag to
zip).

This merges the existing GENERIC, GENERIC_1M, and GENERIC_512k boards
into variants of the new ESP8266_GENERIC board (renamed from GENERIC so
as not to clash with other ports).
Also moves the generation of the "OTA" variant (previously generated by
autobuild/build-esp8266-latest.sh) into the variant.
Following the convention established for the WEACTSTUDIO rp2 board, the
names of the variants are FLASH_1M and FLASH_512K (but rename the .ld files
to use MiB and kiB).
Updates autobuild to build esp8266 firmware the same way as other ports.
This requires renaming the output from firmware-combined.bin to just
firmware.bin.

This is to support a future change to add the variant name to the build
directory and therefore should be the same style as the board name.

On esp32, the build output consists of:
- micropython.elf
- micropython.map
- micropython.bin -- application only
- micropython.uf2 -- application only
- firmware.bin -- bootloader, partition table and application
Currently everything is available at the download page except
micropython.bin. This commit adds that file but with the extension changed
to .app-bin, to distinguish it from .bin (the full thing).

Having two separate manifests is confusing. It's simpler to have the daily
builds use the same configuration as the stable, release builds.

Any board with a board.json file will be built. ESP32-based boards will be
built using the IDF at $IDF_PATH_V42, all other MCU variants (S2, S3, C3)
will be built using the IDF at $IDF_PATH_V44.

Any board with a board.json file will be built. Additional variants for
certain pyboards will also be built by the explicit build-stm32-extra.sh
script. Both .dfu and .hex files will be made available.
Also build boards in a sorted order, and don't stop building if a single
board fails.
