Board support crates provide a further level of wrapping for a specific board
for convenience.

- In this case the board support crate is just providing more useful names, and
  a bit of initialization.
- The crate may also include drivers for some on-board devices outside of the
  microcontroller itself.
  - `microbit-v2` includes a simple driver for the LED matrix.

Run the example with:

```sh
cargo embed --bin board_support
```
