hathach 4b1c8d16f7 docs: add build-doc tooling and a README for every example
Documentation tooling:
- Add the `build-doc` skill and `tools/build_doc.py` wrapper for local
  Sphinx builds (clean / -W / open).
- Enable Markdown (MyST) in conf.py and auto-collect
  examples/{device,host,dual}/*/README.md into a 3-level Examples nav
  (Examples > Device/Host/Dual > example), noting each page's source
  location and normalizing headings to a single H1.
- Remove the stale `.claude/commands/build-doc.md`; point the AGENTS.md
  Documentation section at the skill.

Example docs:
- Add a README.md for every device/host/dual example: what it does, USB
  interface table, notable tusb_config.h settings, generic CMake + Make
  build steps, and how to try it.
- Fold each *_freertos variant into its base README, noting the FreeRTOS
  source path and any RTOS-specific behavior.

Generated docs/examples/ output is git-ignored. Builds clean with
`sphinx-build -W`.

DFU Runtime

A minimal device that exposes a DFU runtime interface, advertising to the host that it can be switched into DFU (bootloader) mode.

What it does

  • Exposes a single DFU runtime interface alongside normal operation.
  • On a DFU_DETACH request, it does not actually reboot into a bootloader; instead it speeds up the LED blink as an indicator (this example is intentionally minimal).
  • Provides a BOS / Microsoft OS 2.0 descriptor so Windows binds the WinUSB driver.
  • LED blink rate indicates bus state (not mounted / mounted / suspended / DFU detach).

USB Descriptors

Configuration

Notable tusb_config.h settings:

#define CFG_TUD_DFU_RUNTIME 1

Building

CMake:

mkdir build && cd build
cmake -DBOARD=raspberry_pi_pico ..
cmake --build .

Make:

make BOARD=raspberry_pi_pico all

Try it

List the device; it appears in Runtime mode:

dfu-util -l

Request a switch to DFU mode:

dfu-util -e

This sends a DETACH request. Since the example is minimal it does not enter a real bootloader; it instead changes the LED to a fast blink as confirmation.
