The main idf.py process has a handler for SIGINT, which actually just
ignores it. The get_default_serial_port() function is called within the
idf.py context to detect port for several tools(monitor,flash) and it's
not possible to terminate it because of this. Let's ignore SIGINT only
while running idf_monitor, which uses it to spawn gdb.

When multiple targets are specified, e.g. idf.py flash monitor, the
automatic port detection is performed twice. Keep the port value in
args.port and avoid multiple calls to get_default_serial_port().

Add idf.py monitor argument --no-reset (-R) to prevent resetting the CPU on monitor startup
idf.py monitor: fix type signature
idf.py monitor: fix reset key shortcut when --no-reset (-R) argument is used
idf.py monitor: change --no-reset (-R) argument descriptions in help
idf.py monitor: simplify --no-reset (-R) argument checks
idf.py monitor: add warning if --no-reset is used, but --port is not given
idf.py monitor: ignore --no-reset if --port is not given
MSYS/Mingw was deprecated since v4.0 and it is removed in v5.0. Please
follow the getting started guide of the documentation to set up a
Windows Command Line or Power Shell based environment.
This follows a similar approach as UART core dump handling in
idf_monitor. Panic handler message is detected in the output,
collected into a file, and the file is passed to the decoding script.
In this case, the decoding script acts as a tiny GDB server, so we
can ask GDB to perform the backtrace.
Support for execution of asynchronous target, such as openocd, which
by default runs in the background, but if it's the only target idf.py
outputs the openocd in the console waiting for termination by user.
Supports also blocking commands gdb and gdbtui to start a debugging
session in an active console.
Supports running gdbgui running a UI debugging session in a browser
window, using the active console for other commands, such as openocd
or monitor.
Supports combining the debug targets in one action list, such as
idf.py openocd gdbgui monitor
This adds detection of UART core dumps to IDF monitor. By default,
core dumps are not printed to the console, but are processed by
espcoredump.py using 'info_corefile' command. The result is printed
to stdout.
This feature can be disabled in menuconfig.
In the future this can be extended to allow running espcoredump.py
with 'dbg_corefile' argument, which is similar to the current GDB Stub
behavior.
