Arduino CLI panics when pluggable discovery tool crashes

[dtomcat]

Describe the problem

Trying to burn bootloader to atmega32u4; but fails because trying to kill process discovery = rp2040. when I remove that board type, It functions perfectly.

To reproduce

install Rapsberry pi pico/RP2040 board types by "Earle F. Philhower, III" and try to burn a bootloader.

Expected behavior

Should burn the bootloader to the atmega32U4

Arduino CLI version

1.0.2

Operating system

Windows

Operating system version

@dtomcat
if you can still reproduce the issue, may you test the arduino-cli build here (scroll down at the bottom of the page): https://github.com/arduino/arduino-cli/actions/runs/10849485867?pr=2707

It contains a fix for the pluggable-discovery client.

I’ve disassembled the setup and have a few projects… I’m not sure when I’ll have time… but can definitely give it a go when I do have the time if someone else hasn’t done so. Thank you for the fix!
