Addressing lots of confusion in Discord about the difference between firmware v1.5 vs firmware v1.0

Remove unused firmware v1.5 folder
Remove old build artifact uf2 files; update firmware root README
Remove deprecated bootloader uf2 and hex files
Update README.md in firmware_v1.0 to link to docs website instead of duplicate local instructions.

cool, btw 1/ instead of removing them, let's move them to a new folder Friend/firmware/deprecated/

@beastoin If you ever need to go reference the files you can use git to pull the older files from the commit history. Having them around in a deprecated folder causes confusion for newcomers that don't understand why there's a deprecated folder. I'm really hoping to reduce newcomer confusion which is rampant on the Discord.

If you insist then I'll rebase to move them to a deprecated folder.

i see. btw the deprecated folder is super clear to understand what it is. besides that, someone may need to recall them and wont be suprised because it's not there anymore.

so lets move them to deprecated folder first then we will do the clean process (remove the deprecated) in the next 3 months.

what do you think ?

one more plug/pitch for just deleting it to avoid confusion from the Discord, @francip was also fine to delete it.

Go ahead. I have this in my PR as well, but I can merge. We will never need that folder, btw, there's nothing there of use.
