This PR contains the necessary changes to platform.txt, boards.txt, and programmers.txt to enable debugging for the boards supported by the "Arduino megaAVR Boards" platform. The GDB server PyAvrOCD and a patched version of AVR-GDB are hosted on my GitHub account as release assets of PyAvrOCD. If you want to take a "test drive", you have to extend the list of additional board manager URLs in the Preferences dialog by

https://felias-fogg.github.io/ArduinoCore-megaavr/package_felias-fogg_ArduinoCore-megaavr_index.json

and then update the Arduino megaAVR Boards platform to the most recent version. Documentation can be found here: https://pyavrocd.io/.

With that, the medbg debugger on the Uno Wifi Rev2 board finally gets something to do!
