doc: develop: flash_debug: add note for LinkServer breakpoints

Browse source 
LinkServer does not set a breakpoint at reset by default when debugging
platforms, so if the user single steps after loading an application they
will likely step through ROM code for the target. Add a note clarifying
that users need to set a breakpoint at the reset handler or "main" in
order to pause their application there.

4. LinkServer does not install an implicit breakpoint at the reset handler. If
you would like to single step from the start of their application, you
will need to add a breakpoint at ``main`` or the reset handler manually.
