A simple Windows companion app to flash firmware onto Pinetime

Description

It would be great if someone with coding skills would make a simple companion app for Windows, that would in the very least, allow for easy flashing of Infinitime to a Pinetime smartwatch via Bluetooth. I find that Gadgetbridge does not connect to the Pinetime on some devices, and Android and Windows are both very popular OSes. Being able to at least update the OS from a Windows PC would make Pinetime more user friendly and help expand the potential user base of Pinetime smartwatches.

Research direction

The proposal is for a Windows companion app that can flash InfiniTime firmware to a PineTime smartwatch over Bluetooth. No implementation files, tests, or entry points are identified; first define the app scope and Windows/Bluetooth approach, then verify that firmware updates work reliably on the stated devices.
