Fix a regression of b77addea2f: The ANSI
color converter returns a class on Windows instead of an object so its
methods won't be callable and will result in a not so helpful error
message: "idf_monitor failed with exit code 120"
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.
This commit make idf_monitor overwrite the ESPPORT environment variable
with the port it's using, and re-run make with the modified environment
variable. In this way, the make invoked will inherit the idf_monitor's
port.

The GDB uses CreateFile to open COM port on Windows. However this
function requires COM path to be `\\.\COMx` to open COM port whose
number is larger than 10.
Replace the port name from `COM` to `\\.\COM` when on Windows to fix
this.
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.
Related to IDF-52.
implemented workaround in idf_monitor for known usbser.sys bug which
causes changes in RTS signal to only be sent if DTR signal also changes.
Works by forcing a dummy change in DTR signal (re-assigning its current
value, as it has previously been done in the flashing tool)

Windows Console write or flush may fail (throwing WindowsError, a subclass of OSError) if the data
written can't be displayed. This may be the case if the serial port is producing garbage bytes.
Ignore the error, in the hope that the serial port may "come good" and write non-garbage later.
Currently, the only way of exiting the idf_monitor program is to hit the CTRL+] button, if your keyboard doesn't have that key unless you hit another modifier key, it's not super trivial to exit.
This change adds the option to exit with CTRL+T (for menu) then hitting X (or CTRL+X) for exiting.
