BlackMark 8f106b636d pureboot 3: a 512-byte slot on every chip, the 1284s included
The word-addressed 1284s were the one family deploying in a 1 KiB slot,
because the far-flash machinery (ELPM reads, RAMPZ page commands, a
word-addressed wire) did not fit 512 B. It does now: 478 B stock, 494 B in
the heaviest configuration the build can produce. They take the 644s'
geometry, where the smallest boot section holds the resident slot and its
staging slot together. The loader's version goes to 3; the host tool did
not change, so its own version stays 2 and only the window it speaks
widens.

Most of the saving is one restructure. The info block and a flash read are
the same act, so giving all four streamed commands one address-and-count
path leaves exactly one call site for the flash streamer: it inlines into
the never-returning command loop and its 24-bit cursor stops being saved
and restored around every transmit. Around it, the ack byte moved out of
line, the wire's byte pair is bit_cast into the word it already is, the
fuse loop ends on its count, the info block's in-slot offset is taken as
the one-byte relocation it is, and -fno-expensive-optimizations gives way
to -fno-move-loop-invariants -fno-tree-ter. Every chip shrank 14-18 B.

The size matrix grew the axes it was missing: the USART1 instance across
the whole clock ladder, and the shape a slow baud gives a software UART —
past 255 delay iterations libavr takes the 16-bit delay loop, which the
ladder default never selects and which was 4 B over the 1284's slot the
first time it was built.

The protocol fixture stopped deriving the loader entry from the flash
size; on the 1284s it had been jumping a slot low and reaching the loader
only because erased flash walked it up.

Docs and comments were consolidated across the port in the same pass: the
README carries a per-chip size table instead of prose, and prose that
restated the code is gone — 190 lines, no behaviour with it.

// Test-fixture application for the pureboot protocol tests: prints "APP" on
// the chip's serial link (the same link the loader uses) — the proof that
// the loader's hand-over, and on the tinies the host's reset-vector
// surgery, actually launched it. Linked normally (crt, vectors at 0); on
// the tinies its reset vector is the rjmp the host re-homes.
//
// On the hardware-USART link it then listens, and an 'L' makes it jump into
// the resident loader — the application-owned loader entry a
// BOOTRST-unprogrammed mega relies on (reset always boots the application
// there), exercised by the self-update tests. The software link idles:
// reset reaches those loaders through the patched vector (or the runner
// models BOOTRST), so the application owes them nothing.
//
// The fixture speaks the deployment its loader was built for: the same
// PUREBOOT_* defines configure it, and without them it assumes the stock
// deployment (the crystal/RC clock table below, the chip's natural link).
