# UART protocol decoder
-#
-
-#
-# Universal Asynchronous Receiver Transmitter (UART) is a simple serial
-# communication protocol which allows two devices to talk to each other.
-#
-# It uses just two data signals and a ground (GND) signal:
-# - RX/RXD: Receive signal
-# - TX/TXD: Transmit signal
-#
-# The protocol is asynchronous, i.e., there is no dedicated clock signal.
-# Rather, both devices have to agree on a baudrate (number of bits to be
-# transmitted per second) beforehand. Baudrates can be arbitrary in theory,
-# but usually the choice is limited by the hardware UARTs that are used.
-# Common values are 9600 or 115200.
-#
-# The protocol allows full-duplex transmission, i.e. both devices can send
-# data at the same time. However, unlike SPI (which is always full-duplex,
-# i.e., each send operation is automatically also a receive operation), UART
-# allows one-way communication, too. In such a case only one signal (and GND)
-# is required.
-#
-# The data is sent over the TX line in so-called 'frames', which consist of:
-# - Exactly one start bit (always 0/low).
-# - Between 5 and 9 data bits.
-# - An (optional) parity bit.
-# - One or more stop bit(s).
-#
-# The idle state of the RX/TX line is 1/high. As the start bit is 0/low, the
-# receiver can continually monitor its RX line for a falling edge, in order
-# to detect the start bit.
-#
-# Once detected, it can (due to the agreed-upon baudrate and thus the known
-# width/duration of one UART bit) sample the state of the RX line "in the
-# middle" of each (start/data/parity/stop) bit it wants to analyze.
-#
-# It is configurable whether there is a parity bit in a frame, and if yes,
-# which type of parity is used:
-# - None: No parity bit is included.
-# - Odd: The number of 1 bits in the data (and parity bit itself) is odd.
-# - Even: The number of 1 bits in the data (and parity bit itself) is even.
-# - Mark/one: The parity bit is always 1/high (also called 'mark state').
-# - Space/zero: The parity bit is always 0/low (also called 'space state').
-#
-# It is also configurable how many stop bits are to be used:
-# - 1 stop bit (most common case)
-# - 2 stop bits
-# - 1.5 stop bits (i.e., one stop bit, but 1.5 times the UART bit width)
-# - 0.5 stop bits (i.e., one stop bit, but 0.5 times the UART bit width)
-#
-# The bit order of the 5-9 data bits is LSB-first.
-#
-# Possible special cases:
-# - One or both data lines could be inverted, which also means that the idle
-# state of the signal line(s) is low instead of high.
-# - Only the data bits on one or both data lines (and the parity bit) could
-# be inverted (but the start/stop bits remain non-inverted).
-# - The bit order could be MSB-first instead of LSB-first.
-# - The baudrate could change in the middle of the communication. This only
-# happens in very special cases, and can only work if both devices know
-# to which baudrate they are to switch, and when.
-# - Theoretically, the baudrate on RX and the one on TX could also be
-# different, but that's a very obscure case and probably doesn't happen
-# very often in practice.
-#
-# Error conditions:
-# - If there is a parity bit, but it doesn't match the expected parity,
-# this is called a 'parity error'.
-# - If there are no stop bit(s), that's called a 'frame error'.

-# Protocol output format:

-# UART packet:
-# [<packet-type>, <rxtx>, <packet-data>]
-#
-# This is the list of <packet-types>s and their respective <packet-data>:
-# - T_START: The data is the (integer) value of the start bit (0 or 1).
-# - T_DATA: The data is the (integer) value of the UART data. Valid values
-# range from 0 to 512 (as the data can be up to 9 bits in size).
-# - T_PARITY: The data is the (integer) value of the parity bit (0 or 1).
-# - T_STOP: The data is the (integer) value of the stop bit (0 or 1).
-# - T_INVALID_START: The data is the (integer) value of the start bit (0 or 1).
-# - T_INVALID_STOP: The data is the (integer) value of the stop bit (0 or 1).
-# - T_PARITY_ERROR: The data is a tuple with two entries. The first one is
-# the expected parity value, the second is the actual parity value.
-#
-# The <rxtx> field is 0 for RX packets, 1 for TX packets.
