Chocolatey appears to follow OpenOCD release schedule, which is not ideal to say the least (last one was in 03/2023), whereas gnutoolchains provides more up-to-date builds (20240916). So I think this should be kept.

Zephyr used to ship OpenOCD in the SDK on Windows (as it is the case on Linux), I don't know why it's no longer the case.

Host tools were never part of the Windows Zephyr SDK distribution.
We eventually plan to provide the host tools, including OpenOCD, on Windows and macOS; but, that likely will not be anytime soon (mainly because it is not a high priority item).

Thank you for reviewing.

I think it should be kept as an alternative to Chocolatey for people who want the latest build.
Also, from my experience, Chocolatey is a pain to use on corporate PCs bcz of firewalls/proxy...
Chocolatey distributes OpenOCD, which we can use in Windows environments. Using this, we can include the installation of OpenOCD to the GSG procedure also on Windows. The GSG procedure has included installing OpenOCD on Linux/macOS so that we can align things on a level with this. I added "openocd" to the `choco install` command-line and fit related descriptions.
