Notably, CircuitPython does not currently support QSPI external flash on NRF
devices, so neither does this port. Don't store anything you care to read in
Python on that giant 64MB flash device for now - the 64MB drive that shows up on
your computer is actually part of the MSC driver provided by the DAPLink
debugger. You'll still have access to 256KB of the onboard flash, however, for
devices, so neither does this port - the 64Mb flash device is not used for
anything. Also, don't confuse this with the 64MiB drive that shows up on your
computer - it's actually part of the MSC driver provided by the DAPLink
debugger, and is inaccessible at all from Python land (this drive is where you
can copy `firmware.hex` if you'd prefer to flash that way as opposed to with
`pyocd`. You'll still have access to 256KB of the onboard flash, however, for
storing your Python files, cat pictures, or whatever.
