photo buffer not clearing, PTP protocol in STA mode

the buffer clearing icon beside the card icon will keep doing the animation forever, the red LED card busy indicator will stay on forever. the camera is inoperable until a full power reset

observed on A7RIV by a user I've been helping

first thing, some cameras actually have two different places to set "save to camera only", so please make sure you set "save to camera only" for both "PC" and "Smartphone"

INSTRUCTIONS.md has been updated

second thing, I added code to dump the buffered image object data into nothingness, but it doesn't work too well. I believe it's actually because of a performance issue within the ESP32. My debug messages say that it's dumping and dumping until it hangs and the RX buffer times out without finishing the entire dump.

Hopefully fixed by 736cdaa

Issue seems to be resolved on my A1 and RX0M2, also the original reporter of this issue has indicated that the new instructions are helpful and avoids this issue.
