   RP400 40-pin connector

   I want to use an Raspberry Pi 400 (the keyboard thing) as the   
   dev/debug system for an RP2040 based product.   
      
   https://www.amazon.com/Raspberry-Computer-Keyboard-Layout-Kabel/dp/B08QCQVWH2   
      
   It has a 40-pin connector on the back. Various sources say that pins 1   
   3 and 5 are either GPIO ports 8 9 and 7 or maybe 2 3 and 4.   
      
   Sometimes the pins are labeled WPI and BCM. Wot's that?

   I can fix most mistakes there in software, just by reassigning port   
   names. But two pins are critical, the SWDIO and SWCLK debug lines out   
   to a Pi Pico or to the 2040 chip.   
      
   I suspect that on the Pi 400 pin 18 is GPIO5 = SWDIO and pin 22 is   
   GPIO6 = SWCLK.   
      
   Is that right? Does that actually work?   
      
   I also note that some people also connect the UART tx/rx between the   
   Pi400 and a Pico for debugging. Should I do that too? Does it help   
   software development?   
      
   Thanks!
