loadable elf example is different for 2 reasons:
1. loadable elf binary don't have flasher_args.json, so we can't use normal
to get from CI artifacts
2. it don't have binary and don't need to downloaded binary to DUT. Some
related functions can be ignored
use CI dependencies could waste a lot bandwidth for target test jobs, as
example binary artifacts are very large. Now we will parse required
artifacts first, then use API to download required files in artifacts.
1. Call cli with explicit argv
When using debugging tools like `pydbg.py --some_arg idf.py -G Ninga
build`, those tools usually call the python script with sys.argv
modified to correct value. But if the cli is called with argv blank, the
cli will get the argv again, and finally get the original command line,
which is incorrect for debugging.
2. Encode the style unicode string back to ascii in menuconfig cmd
On Windows MSYS python2.7, the unicode string set in os.environ will
cause the subprocess creating to fail. All os.environ values should be
strings.
Thank you @ulfalizer for fixing the aquatic color theme in upstream
kconfiglib.
Now "xterm" or "screen" values of TERM environment variable is
sufficient to use our default blue menuconfig. "xterm-256color" or
"screen-256color" was necessary before this fix.

build system: explicitly disable LTO plugin to reduce the number of simultaneously open files
Closes IDF-923 and IDFGH-1764
See merge request espressif/esp-idf!6776
* use Environment::Exit() to avoid PS process hanging
* old-fashioned exceptions
* try-catch-finally necessary
* disable Windows Defender Task when Defender module not installed
* cleanup script checks Defender module existence too
* fixed uninstall of Start Menu LNK
* use Command Prompt instead of Command Line wording
+ Desktop shortcut
* iterate through PSMODULEPATH when looking for WD module

... to reduce the number of simultaneously open files at link time.
When plugin support is enabled in the linker, BFD's (and the
corresponding file handles) are cached for the plugin to use. This
results in quite a large number of simultaneously open files, which
hits the default limit on macOS (256 files).
Since we aren't using LTO now, disable it explicitly when invoking the
linker.
