Finalized the PCB.

Finalized the PCB, added test pads, fixed drc, bom opted.

Also panelized the board as it doesn't increase cost, and improves manufacturing experience..

Finished 90% of the schematic

Drew a few custom symbols, found the optimal ch32 chip with all the needed features and did a heak ton of bom optimizing for this project.
Contemplated between a ton of different versions of the ch32, and drew a couple custom symbols. Also drew a custom footprint
