This function is used to kill processes by name on the target board. It's
primary use it intended to be for cleaning up after a test (in case the
test left processes still running on the target. For that usage, it is
normally called from the base script's [[function_test_cleanup|test_cleanup]]
function.

It is important to use specific process names. Effectively 'grep' is used
to match the process name to the processes to be killed on the target. If
a name is provided that is too general, you will end up killing more than
you expected on the target.
