Can we use USB A connector for USB DFU boot instead of type C in AM62x EVK?

Hi Rakshit,

AM62x USB DFU boot uses AM62x USB0 module in device mode. The USB Spec defines USB device should use type B or micro-B connector (or micro-AB or type C in dual-role configuration). So using type A connector for USB DFU devices violates the USB Spec.
