Inspect the hex file with intelhex, and fail if the hex file has any
contents in the UICR area(s).
family == 'NRF52' still always does --sectoranduicrerase, but this
option is not available on other families.
Add --force command line option to proceed with flashing instead of
failing.

Use mypy to type check the runners package.
The test procedure is now annoying enough to replicate locally that
I'm going to wrap it in a script. Do this for both UNIX and Windows
environments by writing that script in Python.
Keep the GitHub workflow up to date so we now get mypy results in CI.

In some cases especially for on-going development & debugging of real
application it might be useful to load and run not from flash but
from RAM in that case there's one catch: we cannot reset the board
after loading memory with our app.
That's because:
a) RAM we use might be either cleared on reset or might enter
unpredictable state with portion of previously loaded data
being corrupted.
b) Reset vector most probably still point to ROM/flash and so
our current application won't be executed on reset.
So instead of "run reset" command of OpenOCD we'll use
"resume 0x12345678". Where 0x12345678 is our application's
entry-point (which BTW may very well not match beginning of
the .text section or link base).
Now to extract the entry-point we need our application's zephyr.elf
and since we already have a requirement for Elf we may use it for
loading because OpenOCD does it perfectly fine moreover automatically
detecting loaded image type (binary, hex, Elf etc).
And to use that nice feature just add "--use-elf" to west's
command-line for boards that use "openocd" runner. Like that:
----------->8--------------
west flash --use-elf
----------->8--------------

Replace running west command tests in run_ci.sh with a github workflow.
This provides some benefits in that we can run the west command tests on
multiple python versions and host OSes (linux, mac and windows).
Also have the benefit that the tests are only run on modifications to
files in scripts/west_commands/ or scripts/west-commands.yml.
