Debug configuration for Arduino Mega and Atmel-ICE

[fkromer]

It would be great if you could provide instructions about how to configure the Atmel-ICE when using an Arduino Mega. Probably it would make sense to add the configuration as default as well.

The excerpt shown below is from here and allows to debug the ATMega128 in VSCode. The launch.json for the Arduino IDE 2.X should look quite similiar...
