One note: I currently support bool-bossac-udoo on linux_x86_64 at my custom bossac fork but will add support for other platforms if this PR gets accepted. I am happy to work out any issues. |

I have currently tested the upload process in two scenarios.
Both cases result in a succesful upload. |
Happy to run tests for you and report back, if that would help? |

I have looked into the documentation for the Udoo Neo and it seems like there are 3 different ways to upload code. I am not even sure this pull request is up to spec. I tried following all the rules I could find. It might be better to wait for someone from the core team to offer their view. I wouldn't want to force maintenance on them in case I don't fully understood the eco-system. |
This PR adds support for a new board. The Udoo Quad or Dual. This board can be programmed from an external computer (1) or from the internal processor (2). I have therefore, added two new board configurations.
The Udoo Quad needs a modifed bossac as it resets the SAM3X using a custom kernel module on the main processor. This means I also had to add the modified bossac tool in the manifest file.
This new tool is called when one of the Udoo board configurations is used.
This should be a step towards closing platformio/platformio-core#439.
I cannot add support for the Udoo Neo as I do not have access to the hardware to test it.
