<content type='text'>
Change name of .text.ram to .ramtext, then load .text* into flash and
.ramtext into ram. This ensures that 'main' and anything else in a
random .text.* segment will get loaded into flash as appropriate.

Split the flash loader prototype into pieces so that each product can
build a custom flash loader with very little code.

<content type='text'>
.rodata* needs to be in flash; otherwise strings get left in ram.
Failing to align sections makes the initialized data get dumped into
the wrong place in memory.

<content type='text'>
Would be nice to be able to explicitly define addresses for the
romconfig variables, but I can't figure out how to make that
work. Instead, just explicitly load the files in teh right order to
make things land in the right places.

<title>altos: Mark .boot section as (NOLOAD)</title>

<content type='text'>
For some reason, the silly linker marks things in section .boot as
data rather than bss, so they'd end up initialized by default. Force
them to be NOLOAD so they preserve values across reboot so that boot
chaining works properly.

And get it loaded to RAM so it can execute correctly.

This shrinks the base OS load down a bit as well so that stm-flash
fits comfortably in the first 8kB of memory.
