formatting, strict write_flash opts order, atexit & traceback

mcspr · mcspr · commit fe7292853937 · 2025-05-29T18:34:45.000+03:00
replace temporaries tracking write_flash / erase_region with an append
to a generic write_flash_args list. first are actual files, erased ones
at the end

using atexit for cleanup
