Description of Change

This pull request adds a new post-processing step to the build process in platform.txt that generates a flash_args file containing the necessary arguments and file mappings for flashing the firmware. This helps streamline the flashing process by consolidating all required parameters into a single file for both Unix and Windows environments.

Build process enhancement:

  • Added recipe.hooks.objcopy.postobjcopy.4.pattern and recipe.hooks.objcopy.postobjcopy.4.pattern.windows to generate a flash_args file with flash mode, frequency, size, and memory mappings for firmware components after the build.

This file will be used by pytest-embedded to extract the flash information to be used in the tests.
