Add Datalink port of `file` type to allow use of serial ports via internet #74

Open uavinda opened 7 months ago

uavinda commented 7 months ago

The device is not recognized as a serial port when it is a virtual tty https://github.com/uavos/apx-gcs/blob/ea5d8bdb65f14d02a0b4af886b362fe4b87d80f6/src/lib/ApxGcs/Datalink/DatalinkSerial.cpp#L129

GCS must be able to use any file (serial device) as datalink interface, to make it possible to use socat or ser2net utils to forward physical serial ports via internet.
