stm32: Factory reset from code

I believe factory reset should be available as an alternative to USR. USR might not be practical or accessible for custom boards or how the device might be enclosed or accessed.

This might also be related to ways to clear/format/erase the filesystem from code.

Basically recovery and housecleaning.

Thank for your help

Issue #4832 is a feature request to implement factory reset functionality accessible from code (as an alternative to the USR button) for custom boards. Issue #7255 is a bug report about a specific Pyboard v1.1 hardware failure where the factory reset mechanism (button-based) is not working. While both issues mention 'factory reset', they address fundamentally different problems: one is requesting a new software feature, the other is reporting a hardware/firmware bug with existing reset functionality. The candidate does not resolve the query's request for code-accessible factory reset.

Suggested action

Keep both issues open. #4832 remains a feature request for code-accessible factory reset. #7255 is a hardware/bug report that may require separate investigation into the specific Pyboard v1.1 failure mode.
