Use probe-rs as probe-run is deprecated #1

First stab, the examples work except I don't know how to setup/test the serial examples.

The probe-run carte has been deprecated,
https://ferrous-systems.com/blog/probe-run-deprecation. I followed the
migration steps in the Blog Post
https://ferrous-systems.com/blog/probe-run-deprecation/#migration-steps

With this change `cargo run --example blinky` flashes and the green LED
blinks. If you have a version of probe-rs <= 0.22.0 then you may see
an error; see: probe-rs/probe-rs#2072.
With `cargo run --example rprintln` you see both rprintln and
debug_rprintln lines being printed.

With `cargo run --release --example rprintln` you see just rprintln
lines printed.
Build and run if probe-rs was installed using
`cargo install probe-rs --features cli`
 $ cargo run --example channels-3u-1d

Alternatively using embed and a multi-tabe terminal is seen. Use
F1, F2 and F3 to switch between tabs, Ctrl-C to terminate:
 $ cargo embed --example channels-3u-1d

Build and run using `probe-rs` directly:
 $ cargo build --example channels-3u-1d
 $ probe-rs run --chip STM32F446RETx target/thumbv7em-none-eabi/debug/examples/channels-3u-1d

Thanks for the PR! I agree it's a good idea to move to probe-rs since probe-run is deprecated.
I see you added some other examples as well. I'd prefer the PR to be targeted to one change at a time as this is simplest, but I'm OK to bundle it all together - it just may take longer for me to understand the implications of everything.

What is this feature needed for? I initially had a build error that I think is due to this feature being added in a later version of cortex-m.

Before adding that I got errors that _critical_section_1_0_release and _critical_section_1_0_acquire were undefined.

I did a search for undefined _critical_section_1_0_release and found this so I added critical-section-single-core. Actually, I didn't find that ferrous post originally, but it pedantically explains why so used that one here :)

Ah! I see what's going on now. I had an older lockfile initially, which only use 0.7.5, which does fail to build with the feature (because it was added in 0.7.6). But, newer versions of the dependencies use 0.7.7 which does have the feature, and requires it in this situation (as your link to the Ferrous Systems blog explains). At least it makes sense now.

embedded-hal = "0.2.7"
switch-hal = "0.4.0"
stm32f4xx-hal = { version = "0.13.2", features = ["stm32f446"]}
unwrap-infallible = "0.1.5"
rtt-target = "0.5.0"

Is this needed for cargo embed for the example you added? If so, I think it's best to place it in the dev-dependencies as someone using the crate as a library has no need to add this as a dependency.

Yes, I'm going to remove the new examples so this will be removed.

To be honest, I don't see much value in this example being included in this repository. It seems more like a demonstration of rtt features as otherwise the behavior is identical to the blinky example.

I thought that was important feature you can when using probe-rs so I added it. But to simplify this change I'm removing them.

let mut output2 = channels.up.1;
writeln!(
output2,

I ran this example but couldn't get it to work like I thought. On channel 0 I am able to get an uppercase'd echo and periodic logs on channel 2, but channel 1 (which has this message) doesn't do anything. I probably need to read up more on RTT to get what is going on here.

It does feel similar to the comment I left on the other example, that I'm not sure this adds much to this nucleo crate (rather an example of RTT usage). But, it is a more involved example so I'm more inclined to include it.

By the way, you mentioned not being able to get the serial working. The debugger built into the nucleo should provide a USB CDC serial port to your system. For Windows this shows up as a COM port and on Linux it might be a tty. You should be able to use any serial terminal to access it, for example PuTTy or screen /dev/ttyACM0.

Closing I've got a simpler PR that just Uses probe-rs
