loadFiles not working as expected with PE Micro servertype

[tsweaver321]

With servertype set to "pe" and 2 elf files (bootloader and application) listed in loadFiles, each file is being programmed to my target's flash, but, unfortunately, a complete flash erase is done before each elf is programmed. The result is that only the 2nd elf file remains loaded at the end. When multiple files are programmed using the loadFiles setting, a complete flash erase should only happen before the first elf file is programmed.

Currently, we're working around this issue by using another tool to reprogram the bootloader after we've used VS Code to program a changed application (vni). At that point, debugging of the application in Cortex-Debug is working as expected. I'm loading symbols from application elf only.

bootloader is from 0x00000000 to 0x00003FFF
application is from 0x00004000 to 0x0017FFFF
