Clean up the design. #54

This all looks okay.

Is a single A3 page nicer than two A4 pages for the schematic? I know that's been the preference for other icebreaker boards. The tricky thing with multipage is the use of pass-through signals or global nets to link signals between the pages.

As mentioned on discord I have PCBs ordered, and they're on their way. So likely this design will see some additional changes based on bringup of that board.

I would recommend keeping everything on one page as long as possible. Increasing the sheet size to A3 is a reasonable compromise in my opinion.

I mostly just like being able to look at a single page pdf, given that I've never printed a schematic out.

I do agree the layout is cleaner now. Thanks!
