I was struggling to flash my device with openocd after I started using RTFM while googling I found this message:
https://www.jsykora.info/2014/10/error-jtag-status-contains-invalid-mode-value-communication-failure-solved/

adding this at the top of my init seems to have helped:

	#[init(schedule = [toggle])] 
	unsafe fn init() {
        let dbg = device.DBG;
        dbg.cr.modify(|_, w| w.dbg_sleep().set_bit());
    }

let dbg = device.DBG;

This is device specific and can't really be done in rtfm. It could be the case that the device does not have a DBG peripheral; or it may not be named like that; or its registers / bit fields may be named differently; or the svd file may not contain bitfield information.

131: Allow GDB to unwind HardFault callstacks r=therealprof a=adamgreen

When I currently request GDB to dump a hard fault stack, I see
something like this:
```
(gdb) bt
#0  UserHardFault_ (ef=0x10001fb8) at /depots/cortex-m-rt/src/lib.rs:537
rtic-rs#1  0x08003fe6 in HardFault ()
Backtrace stopped: previous frame identical to this frame (corrupt stack?)
```
GDB can't unwind past HardFault since the current implementation of
this function overwrites the Link Register (LR) value. This change
pushes LR and R0 (to maintain 8-byte stack alignment) to the stack
before transferring execution to UserHardFault().

After this change, I see a callstack like this from GDB:
```
(gdb) bt
#0  UserHardFault_ (ef=0x10001fb0) at /depots/cortex-m-rt/src/lib.rs:537
rtic-rs#1  0x08003fe8 in HardFault ()
rtic-rs#2  <signal handler called>
rtic-rs#3  0x08002820 in core::ptr::read_volatile (src=0x48001800) at libcore/ptr.rs:472
rtic-rs#4  0x080001a2 in main () at src/07-registers/src/main.rs:14
```
Notes:
* This code uses 8 more stack bytes.
* Increases the size of the HardFault handler by 2 narrow instructions
  or 4 bytes. This could be decreased to 2 bytes by removing the pop
  since UserHardFault() doesn't currently return but it just looks too
  odd for me to do as an initial attempt.

Based on the great feedback to PR rtic-rs#131, I have removed the POP
instruction that I added in my previous commit since UserHardFault
never returns.
