fix: Make OpenOCD reboot script more robust 

- Use 'reset halt' to reliably gain control of the target.
- Add explicit timings to the reset signal configuration to
  prevent timeouts and improve stability.

# This is the key command. It tells OpenOCD that a "reset" should

# --- The Improved Reboot Sequence ---
# This is the most reliable way to gain control and issue a reset.
# 'reset halt' asserts the reset line, then immediately halts the cores
# as they come out of reset, before they can execute any code.

# This command now triggers the nSRST signal as configured above.

# Now that the system is halted and stable, we can let it run.
