Run `go run ./cmd/load/` from the project root. This builds the firmware, loads it onto the Pico, and reboots.

If cmake needs reconfiguring (e.g. after CMakeLists.txt changes), run `cmake -B build` first.

After modifying the load command itself (cmd/load/, lib/wire/, lib/picoserial/), run it twice: once to load the firmware, once to verify the load process still works end-to-end.
