From circuitpython.org/downloads page, add primary processor used on board option to 'Filters' likes 'SAMD21, SAMD51, ESP32-S2, STM32, nRF52840, RP2040 ...'.
Currently, can't to do that, e.g. : input 'RP2040' to 'Search for CircuitPython boards' field, the 'Pico' can't list out,
input 'ESP32-S2' to 'Search for CircuitPython boards' field, 'Saola 1 w/WROVER, Saola 1 w/WROOM' can't list out.

Huh, this is an interesting idea. I wonder if we can add something to the data files that CircuitPython generates since every board is already split up in Ports folders.

Although SAMD21 and SAMD51 are grouped together in CP, so maybe not the best approach. If we add to the data files, I think we'll have to have some checks in place so the values are restricted to a list because Jekyll likes to group things like "SAMD21", "samd21", and "samd 21" differently.

In the long term I'd like to see a TOML database for boards similar to https://github.com/adafruit/nvm.toml. That info is more broadly useful than just having it in CP.
