Standardise the JTAG connector orientation

Example

Clicker 4 for STM32

real world implications

This is the best orientation, with JTAG cable setup on codegrip to give cable free blockage on Clicker 4 board

switch to using a UNI Clicker and now the JTAG cable gets in the way of being able to scope probe the board

ugly solution is to swap the cable ends around (and twist the cable)
