Description

The latest available version of Raspberry Pi OS (Bookworm) has changed the location of the config.txt file where you can enable the SPI hardware interface. It used to be in `/boot/config.txt`, and now it is located in `/boot/firmware/config.txt`. Also, the setting went through different names, but the latest name is `dtparam=spi=on`.

Some of the sample docs still have the old instructions and need updating. For example, the nRF24L01 sample: https://github.com/dotnet/iot/blob/main/src/devices/README.md#important
