Description
As an IBEX user I would like start_ibex_server to be more hardy and use a free port for the gateway procserv starts. I had an issue where port 9004 wasn;t free and this was hard to debug because starting the server didn't give much useful output that the port was in use.
For other processes EG IOCs we check for free ports before assigning them.
### Acceptance Criteria
_What is the acceptance criteria?_
- [ ] Block and external gateway processes are given free ports on startup rather than fixed 9003 and 9004 respectively
### Extra Information
gateway procs are started in C:\Instrument\Apps\EPICS\gateway\start_gateways.bat
