Feature request: Capture data sent by device to a debug log #220

When developing a custom Adalight like device, it would be nice if the data sent out on the serial was captured into a log file. This is important for esp8266/esp32 as crash data is sent out the serial (by the core) that could help diagnosing the problem in the firmware.

If you are not planning on adapting Prismatik to your firmware (which I assume you are not if you ask this), it's waaay simpler to make a small program where you can send and monitor whatever you need to test and not be bothered by Prismatik's overhead and inconsistencies

I would also like to have this option. Mainly because I made lot of tests now (#117) and I had to e.g. simulate Prismatik with RealTerm to get the informations (e.g. about corrupted frame).
