Description
When following the directions in https://github.com/AdaCore/Ada_Drivers_Library/blob/master/examples/README.md
The following command will clone the bb-runtimes repository under the hood:
python ./scripts/install_dependencies.py
When run with arm-elf-linux 21.1 Ada compiler intalled, the bb-runtimes that is checked out by default is incompatible with the version of the installed compiler. Manually checking out branch 21.1 in the bb-runtimes repository that was created by the python script resolved the issue.

Research direction
Update examples/README.md, focusing on the directions around scripts/install_dependencies.py. Document how to obtain a bb-runtimes version compatible with the installed arm-elf-linux 21.1 compiler, including the reported 21.1 branch; the work is done when following the README avoids the incompatibility described.
