Is your feature request related to a problem?

Sometimes the computer running esptool has a lot of serial ports. When not specifying a COM# or device file, this can cause esptool to take a long time to find a device, as it searches through every COM# looking for an ESP chip.

Describe the solution you'd like

I'd like the ability to specify a USB VID/PID (or a few) for filtering possible serial ports for ESPtool to connect to, and it would use this information to skip COM# that do not match.

Describe alternatives you've considered

It's possible to specify a COM#, but when programming a number of boards with their own COM#, it's tricky to keep track of. Another alternative would be to wrap esptool with something to identify the COM#, then pass to esptool.
