OTA or YModem transfer on Electron
- update to 0.5.3 (if the current version is less than that)
- then update to 0.6.4 if the current version is less than that)
- then update to 0.7.0-rc.6.
Note that the upgrade sequences are only needed when updating with Over-the-Air updates or using YModem particle flash --serial.
