Support for C++ was added in 97960dc7de but
that commit didn't include the C++ exception handling table in the binary
firmware image. This commit fixes that.

This board now has the following 3 build configurations:
- mboot + external QSPI in XIP mode + internal filesystem
- mboot + external QSPI with filesystem (the default)
- no mboot + external QSPI with filesystem
This demonstrates how to use external QSPI flash in XIP (execute in place)
mode. The default configuration has all extmod/ code placed into external
QSPI flash, but other code can easily be put there by modifying the custom
f769_qspi.ld script.
This is a good board to demonstrate the use of Mboot because it only has a
USB HS port exposed so the native ST DFU mode cannot be used. With Mboot
this port can be used.
This patch forces a board to explicitly define TEXT1_ADDR in order to
split the firmware into two separate pieces. Otherwise the default is now
to produce only a single continuous firmware image with all ISR, text and
data together.
This patch allows a particular board to independently specify the linker
scripts for 1) the MCU memory layout; 2) how the different firmware
sections are arranged in memory. Right now all boards follow the same
layout with two separate firmware section, one for the ISR and one for the
text and data. This leaves room for storage (filesystem data) to live
between the firmware sections.
The idea with this patch is to accommodate boards that don't have internal
flash storage and only need to have one continuous firmware section. Thus
the common.ld script is renamed to common_ifs.ld to make explicit that it
is used for cases where the board has internal flash storage.
This is to keep the top-level directory clean, to make it clear what is
core and what is a port, and to allow the repository to grow with new ports
in a sustainable way.
