DFU: set stack pointer before starting main app
The stack size is fixed. The linker script puts the stack section
after the bss section. The initial stack pointer is not at the
end of the RAM (as often seen).
Thus the initial stack pointer address of the main application
is different than the one from DFU. When starting the main
application the stack pointer needs to be set to the new value.
If this is not done the main application stack may overwrite the
data in bss, even without exceeding the fixed stack size.
