[Feature request] Add support for power trace

[diggit]

Hi,
I started using power output on my J-link base compact and noticed there is current and voltage available on it's webserver http://localhost:19080/target_power.htm .

Segger website sites state only higher end probes support power tracing at 200 ksa/s, but my J-link compacts can obviously measuring output current and voltage (at least on some lower rate, web control panel traces refresh several times per second.

There are API functions JLINK_POWERTRACE_Control and JLINK_POWERTRACE_Read. It looks similar to RTT API functions.

Would it be possible to explore this functionality and add it into pylink? Unfortunately I don't have SDK license so I don't know if I can help.

Sorry, I forgot to update here. I'll take a look at this. I have the code complete, just haven't had a moment to test it yet. Will try to get something out by EoW.

@hkpeprah Hi, do you have the code in some public branch? I can also give it a try, but I only have Base models...

Sorry, I'm just wrapping up the unit tests, then I will put up a patch.
