Add bootloader update section on board page#446

This looks great, however I'm concerned with removing the Gemfile.lock is that it may not compile on Github Pages after that. I was able to generate the pages, but I believe it locks things to certain versions. |

Add a section on each board download page with links and information about updating the bootloader. There is a corresponding new data file,
_data/bootloaders.json. Right now it needs to be updated manually, but should eventually be automated.The section appears only for
atmel-samdandnrfboards right now, but not for STM and other famiies for which there's a built-in bootloader or we don't have a good story yet.Some third-party boards have not PR'd changes to the https://github.com/adafruit/uf2-samdx1 repo, or have done so only to the upstream repo. The bootloader section is omitted for boards for which we don't have links to bootloader updates.
