Research direction

Start by reviewing the linked pico-extras and ZuluSCSI implementations to understand the existing SD-card approaches. Then inspect the pico-sdk structure and determine where a reusable helper would fit. Done should be defined as basic init/deinit and read/write operations over both SDIO and SPI, with scope and tests agreed.

Description

enhancement

SD-Card is a must these days for all projects that requires more storage than the space in the flash.

Even though there are a few implementations out there e.g. pico-extrac (incomplete) and ZuluSCSI (GPLv3), it will be great if the SDK itself provides at least basic sdcard operations like init/deinit, read & write over both SDIO and SPI.
