LinkServer manages port numbers for gdb and semihost as separate linear
sequences when invoked to debug multi-core applications, e.g the
gdb-server instance for cpu0 will have the default GDB port 3333 and the
next gdb-server instance will be assigned the port 3334. The latter will
conflict with the default port for semihost which is 3334.
This patch changes the default port for semihost to 8888.
Port numbers can be changed when invoking the linkserver runner.

As the .bin & .hex build output is optional
and it can be disabled by CONFIG_BUILD_OUTPUT_BIN/HEX,
add support for the mandatory .elf build output
to the linkserver runner flash command.

- Fixes linkserver runner "west flash --erase" error:
ERRMSG: Exception: Device query can have at most 2 parts (3 found)
- There is no need to specify the core with
the flash erase command line.

There is no need to specify the core with the flash command line. This
is actually rejected with linkserver v1.5.xx and after.

With commit f419ea7990 (runner: linkerserver : remove the probe ID
hardcode), support was added to use serial numbers with the linkserver
--probe argument. However, one invocation of the argument was missed,
and still used the "probe index" syntax. Resolve this issue.

LinkServer is NXP's tool to flash and debug on MCU's.
This patch expands support for LinkServer to MIMXRT1170.
There is one limitation with flashing and debugging the SoC's seciond
core (COrtex M4) that will be addressed with a future submission.
