/**
Initialize the debug port.
This function will initialize debug port to get it ready for data transmition. If
certain Debug Communication Library instance has to save some private data in the
stack, this function must work on the mode that doesn't return to the caller, then
the caller needs to wrap up all rest of logic after DebugPortInitialize() into one
function and pass it into DebugPortInitialize(). DebugPortInitialize() is
responsible to invoke the passing-in funciton at the end of DebugPortInitialize().
If the paramter Function is not NULL, Debug Communication Libary instance will
invoke it by passing in the Context to be the first parameter. Debug Communication
Library instance could create one debug port handle to be the second parameter
passing into the Function. Debug Communication Library instance also could pass
NULL to be the second parameter if it doesn't create the debug port handle.
If the parameter Function is NULL, and Context is not NULL. At this time, Context
is the debug port handle created by the previous Debug Communication Library
instance.
a) If the instance can understand and continue use the private data of the previous
instance, it could return the same handle as passed in (as Context parameter).
b) If the instance does not understand, or does not want to continue use the
private data of the previous instance, it could ignore the input Context parameter
and create the new hanlde to be returned.
If Function() is NULL and Context is NULL, Debug Communication Library could create a
new handle and return it. NULL is also a valid handle to be returned.
@param[in] Context Context needed by callback function; it was optional.
@param[in] Function Continue function called by Debug Communication library;
it was optional.
@return The debug port handle created by Debug Communication Library if Function
is not NULL.
