This was missed in 65d5196 when upgrading MicroPython. This would lead to programs being copied to RAM before running. How it was found: If all slots were full, then the program would not run as there would not be enough heap to load yet another program. Also, MicroPython has a hardcoded test for mp_reader_mem_readbyte in mp_reader_try_read_rom, so it would ignore our reader even with MICROPY_VFS_ROM enabled. Fixes pybricks/support#2382
