serial: serial-uclass: Add generic serial RX buffer support
Pasting longer lines into the U-Boot console prompt sometimes leads to
characters missing. One problem here is the small 16-byte FIFO of the
legacy NS16550 UART, e.g. on x86 platforms.
This patch now introduces a Kconfig option to enable RX buffer support
for all DM based serial drivers. With this option enabled, I was
able paste really long lines into the U-Boot console, without any
characters missing.
