Integration with MCUXpresso, MCUXpresso VScode extension or other host debug tools

Hi.

Thanks for greatly improving the documentation! It was a very pleasant experience to go through the steps to build AVB applications targeting FreeRTOS and iMXRT1170EVK. It would be really great with some advice on how to integrate this into MCUXpresso (or the VScode plugin). Currently, I am dragging and dropping the generated .bin files onto the Mass Storage Device exposed by the companion chip on the EVK. It would be great to have the ability to flash and debug the code, use the managed linker scripts etc.

Alternatively, can you recommend some other host debug tools that enable flashing and stepping through code and interacts with GDB. I have some MCU Link and MCU Link Pro's here.

Thanks for suggestions
