Introduce watchdog and serialization improvements

- Added watchdog timer for improved system stability and responsiveness.
- Switched save data serialization to Bincode for better efficiency.
- Enhanced compatibility by supporting fallback to older JSON format.
- Improved logging during flash operations for easier debugging.
- Simplified SavegameManager by managing storage directly.
