Fix intermittent J-Link interface startup failures:
- Use usb_reset to ensure selected dongle is in known good state.
- Assert emulator reset durning status check to prevent supurious failures.
- Eliminate status check loop; not needed due to other fixes.

/*
* The next three instructions were added after discovering a problem while using an oscilloscope. For the V8
* SAM-ICE dongle (and likely other j-link device variants), the reset line to the target microprocessor was found to
* cycle only intermittently during emulator startup (even after encountering the downstream reset instruction later
* in the code). This was found to create two issues: 1) In general it is a bad practice to not reset a CPU to a known
* state when starting an emulator and 2) something critical happens inside the dongle when it does the first read
* following a new USB session. Keeping the processor in reset during the first read collecting version information
* seems to prevent errant "J-Link command EMU_CMD_VERSION failed" issues.
