reserve RAM for DFU magic
this changes the linker script so the first word (smallest unit
since the data needs to be 4 baty aligned) is not reserved for
the RAM section.
this allows the application to write any data at this address
without the rest of the code messing with the content.
since the SRAM is preserved after reset, this allows to share
data between firmware.
in particular it allows the application to tell the bootloader it
should start the flashing procedure.
this is already implemented in the osmo-asf4-dfu DFU bootloader.
if the application wants to switch to the DFU bootloader, write
the DFU magic 0x44465521 (DFU!) at the beginning of RAM at address
(uint32_t*)HSRAM_ADDR, and perform a system reset.
