remote_bitbang: Change sleep commands to Zz to avoid conflict with SWD
It was noticed that the remote_bitbang protocol has a design issue: SWD and sleep commands cannot be implemented at the same time, because they overlap: - SWD uses d,e,f,g for setting pin state - sleep uses d,D for microsecond and millisecond sleep, respectively This has previously been reported by Marek Vrbka, but it wasn't fixed. This commit does the following to resolve the issue: - Change the sleep commands to 'Z' for 1 ms, 'z' for 1 µs - Document 'D' and 'd' as deprecated aliases - Switch the remote_bitbang driver in OpenOCD to 'Z' and 'z' Unfortunately that's a breaking change, because existing adapter-side implementations of the protocol will have to implement the new commands to keep working with future versions of OpenOCD. Fortunately, the remote sleep commands haven't been part of an OpenOCD release yet, which should limit the breakage somewhat.

If the use_remote_sleep option is set to 'yes', two additional requests may
be sent:
- D - Sleep for 1 millisecond
- d - Sleep for 1 microsecond
+ Z - Sleep for 1 millisecond
+ z - Sleep for 1 microsecond
