pyocd-gdbserver fails when attempting to use a cmsis-pack
See original GitHub issueI can use targets supplied by a pack when running pyocd gdbserver, but the new targets are not available when calling pyocd-gdbserver instead.
This isn’t a big deal for command line usage, but I’m currently using an IDE extension to launch pyocd and it still uses the old command.

Finally figured it out. 😄
pyocd-gdbserveruses an argparse type callable to validate the target name passed to--target(validate_target()inpyocd/tools/gdb_server.py). This function raisesInvalidArgumentErrorfor an unknown target, and is not aware of pack targets.Cool! I was going to start experimenting with the cortex-debug extension. I’ll take a look at your PR.
