/// Create a bootloader config from the flash and address symbols defined in the linkerfile
/// Constructs a `BootLoaderConfig` instance from flash memory and address symbols defined in the linker file.
///
/// This method initializes `BlockingPartition` instances for the active, DFU (Device Firmware Update),
/// and state partitions, leveraging start and end addresses specified by the linker. These partitions
/// are critical for managing firmware updates, application state, and boot operations within the bootloader.
///
/// # Parameters
/// - `active_flash`: A reference to a mutex-protected `RefCell` for the active partition's flash interface.
/// - `dfu_flash`: A reference to a mutex-protected `RefCell` for the DFU partition's flash interface.
/// - `state_flash`: A reference to a mutex-protected `RefCell` for the state partition's flash interface.
///
/// # Safety
/// The method contains `unsafe` blocks for dereferencing raw pointers that represent the start and end addresses
/// of the bootloader's partitions in flash memory. It is crucial that these addresses are accurately defined
/// in the memory.x file to prevent undefined behavior.
///
/// The caller must ensure that the memory regions defined by these symbols are valid and that the flash memory
/// interfaces provided are compatible with these regions.
///
/// # Returns
/// A `BootLoaderConfig` instance with `BlockingPartition` instances for the active, DFU, and state partitions.
///
/// # Example
/// ```no_run
/// // Assume `active_flash`, `dfu_flash`, and `state_flash` all share the same flash memory interface.
/// let layout = Flash::new_blocking(p.FLASH).into_blocking_regions();
/// let flash = Mutex::new(RefCell::new(layout.bank1_region));
///
/// let config = BootLoaderConfig::from_linkerfile_blocking(&flash, &flash, &flash);
/// // `config` can now be used to create a `BootLoader` instance for managing boot operations.
/// ```
/// Working examples can be found in the bootloader examples folder.
