[Feature Request]: Please support rfc2217 in device port select menu. (VSC-711) #471

I use wsl2 and vscode as the development environment on win10, and I can use some like -p rfc2217://xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx:1234 in the command line mode to flash the esp32 chip. But in vscode, the idf plug-in only let me choose an existing port instead of input the string of rfc2217. I hope I can input the string to use rfc2217 mode. Or maybe the idf plugin can directly do the rfc2217 server function in the vscode remote mode?

While the command ESP-IDF: Select port to use only shows available serial ports in your system, you can still manually edit the idf.port (idf.portWin for Windows users) with any value you want by using the command palette commands Preferences: Open Settings (JSON), Preferences: Open Settings (UI) or directly in your <project-directory-path>/.vscode/settings.json or workspace settings.

You can also use the ESP-IDF: Device Configuration command, select Device port and manually enter the port string value.

Closing this issue since the user can currently modify the value as desired.
