This is a big change that will determine the stack size for many
goroutines automatically. Functions that aren't recursive and don't call
function pointers can in many cases have an automatically determined
worst case stack size. This is useful, as the stack size is usually much
lower than the previous hardcoded default of 1024 bytes: somewhere
around 200-500 bytes is common.
A side effect of this change is that the default stack sizes (including
the stack size for other architectures such as AVR) can now be changed
in the config JSON file, making it tunable per application.
There were a few instances like `.text` and `.text*`. The first was
redundant with the second, but the intention was to write `.text.*`.
This doesn't change anything (tested with `make smoketest`) but should
avoid propagating this error in the future.
This prevents it from being of type PROGBITS in lld 9, it should always
be NOBITS. It should fix the following error in lld 9:
ROM segments are non-contiguous
LLD version 8 has added support for armv6m:

This means we can use LLD instead of arm-none-eabi-ld, eliminating our
dependency on GNU binutils.
There are small differences in code size, but never more than a few
bytes.
