adds board support for SparkFun Thing Plus NORAW306

[lewispg228]

Description of Change

• Adds boards support for SparkFun Thing Plus NORAW306
• Adds suggested change to SPI.begin and SPI1.begin location. It was causing runtime failures when using an WS2812B LED example that calls show() multiple times to change colors.

Tests and Environments

• SPARKFUN_THINGPLUS_NORAW306
• ambd_arduino V3.1.7
• Arduino IDE 2.3.2
• Windows 11 Pro

@M-ichae-l Thank you for helping to merge this in so quickly!

Sorry, but I think our changes to the WS2812B show() function have introduced a new problem. Our QA team had discovered that it still gets hung up when you try to do multiple calls to "show()" method.

We think we have found the solution:

We just need to simply remove the call to spi_free() at the end of show().

Let us know what you think and thanks,
