Add hard reset / boot

[BoKKeR]

The current reset command does not execute the boot.py script upon exiting the REPL. Would be nice to add hard reset that would automatically execute boot.py or add the execution of boot.py after entering the REPL.

This dirty hack makes the board the hard reset but it stops the executable from exiting. I am sure that there is a better way to do this.

def reset():
    """Perform soft reset/reboot of the board.

    Will connect to the board and perform a soft reset.  No arguments are
    necessary:

      ampy --port /board/serial/port reset
    """
    # Enter then exit the raw REPL, in the process the board will be soft reset
    # (part of enter raw REPL).
    _board.enter_raw_repl()
    _board.exec_('import machine')
    _board.exec_('machine.reset()') 
    _board.exit_raw_repl()
