Series hw/char: Implement the STM32L4x5 USART, UART and LPUART | expand

Commit Message

Arnaud Minier March 29, 2024, 5:43 p.m. UTC
Add the basic infrastructure (register read/write, type...)
to implement the STM32L4x5 USART.

Also create different types for the USART, UART and LPUART
of the STM32L4x5 to deduplicate code and enable the
implementation of different behaviors depending on the type.
