Implement the internal flash FS stuff we spoke about to remove the need for the external user flash.

work out what partition structure we weed that will give us the maximum space
should we keep an OTA partition? Should we support OTA updates?
Should is be FAT or LittleFS? I still like the idea of having the partition be mountable on a computer

The current partition scheme (huge_app.csv) doesn't support OTA: https://github.com/espressif/arduino-esp32/blob/master/tools/partitions/huge_app.csv (see no ota_1 partition)

Sure, I guess the Q is, do we want to support it? Or do we want to claim all of the space it needs for the user storage partition?

Here's one possibility i came up with https://github.com/prplz/TinyWatch-official-firmware/blob/5e79d0c19c9cb46e05bd207dc49df51af556b784/Platform-io-source/tinywatch-partitions.csv: 2x app partitions of ~3.2MB and a fat partition of ~1.5MB. I simply copied the default 8MB partition scheme, changed the spiffs to fat and removed the coredump partition (i dont know they added it, some "esp insights" thing)
