OpenOCD starts GDB, telnet, and TCL servers on fixed default ports. When multiple boards on the same exporter bootstrap concurrently, the second OpenOCD instance fails to bind these ports. Disable the server ports before loading OpenOCD configuration files. OpenOCDDriver does not provide a lifecycle for using or stopping these servers, while disabling them allows parallel bootstrap operations. Signed-off-by: Ozan Durgut <ozan.durgut@analog.com>

Description
OpenOCD starts GDB, telnet, and TCL servers on fixed default ports. When
multiple boards on the same exporter bootstrap concurrently, the second
OpenOCD instance fails to bind these ports.
Disable the server ports before loading OpenOCD configuration files.
OpenOCDDriver does not provide a lifecycle for using or stopping these
servers, while disabling them allows parallel bootstrap operations.
Configurations that intentionally require a server interface can re-enable
the required port before
init.Checklist
