Research direction

No files, tests, or entry points are named. Start by locating how the browser editor defines its default MicroPython modules and how the build is assembled; define the add/remove interaction and an acceptance test for included modules and reclaimed flash before implementation.

Written by the indexing model from the issue text.

Description

It would be good to be able to add modules that aren't included in the default build.

It might also be nice to be able to remove modules that are included by default but that are using flash that the program could reclaim.

One possible model for this would be to drag and drop a module into the browser and have included modules listed on the right hand side where the 'instructions' lived on the microbit.co.uk site
