This is becoming increasingly necessary as autopilots are buried in the UAVs

@superjax I added a service for this to the code in the rosflight repo. Can you add me to that repo so I can make a branch with my changes?

I successfully tested my fix on a board. The changes are in reboot_to_bootloader branch on the rosflight repo.

Hey @cmcquinn, we typically don't "close" an issue until we merge the commit into a release branch (like rc1.0. Thanks for putting this together. When we get around to merging that in, then we will close this issue.

I just realized today that this doesn't work properly. Sometimes the code will flash without issues, but doesn't run properly, and other times make flash returns an error before the firmware can be written 100%. I am going to do some research and see what we can do to fix this.
