Research direction
Start by tracing the jlink.swo_start(100_000_000) entry point and the handling of SWO speed limits for J-Trace PRO devices. Verify the behavior against the documented 100 MHz capability and determine whether 100 MHz can be accepted; done means the supported behavior is implemented or the limitation is clearly documented.

Description
According to Segger, the J-Trace PRO models are capable of SWO speeds up to 100 MHz.
However, when I call jlink.swo_start(100_000_000), the following dialog pops up:

Is there a way to enable speeds above 50 MHz?
