Description

Postmaster assumes a certain flash map is used to describe the internal flash configuration.
This is not valid for all ST controllers (i.e. STM32WB55).

https://github.com/philips-software/amp-postmaster/blob/9473c1d3efd021cd0ad530f573b0ce2613c047ab/postmaster/instantiations/TargetProgrammer.hpp#L61

Proposal would be to make this configurable through the postmaster API.
This could be done by making in configurable through the network headers.

Research direction

Start with postmaster/instantiations/TargetProgrammer.hpp around line 61 and inspect the network headers referenced in the issue. Determine how the internal flash map is currently selected and define where the postmaster API should accept an alternative configuration; done means STM32WB55 and existing supported ST controllers can be represented without breaking current behavior.
