* \subsection SSec_Aux_Space Auxiliary Bootloader Section
* To make the bootloader function on smaller devices (those with a physical bootloader section of smaller than 6KB) a second
* section of memory (called the <i>Auxiliary Bootloader Section</i>) is added before the start of the real bootloader section,
* and is filled with a portion of the bootloader code. This allows smaller devices to run the bootloader, at the cost of an
* additional portion of the device's FLASH (the bootloader section size in KB subtracted from the 6KB total size). A small
* trampoline is inserted at the start of the auxiliary section so that the bootloader will run normally in the case of a blank
* application section.
*
* On devices supporting a 8KB bootloader section size, the AUX section is not created in the final binary.
