Couldn't find this unlock code in any documentation. Only in a doubtful Amazon comment. So I disabled it.

This is what my Google-fu gave me, not sure if it is related thou

it is needed I remember sniffing the configuration of the GUI app to see how they do it because just sending config didn't work

Thanks for your comments!
After reading @FadeFx comment and link I immediately thought: "Could be an Auto-Baud detection sequence", but in-between tested it. It's not :-)
Will uncomment it again.

IMU_CYCLETIME is 20ms, so I reduced WT's return rate to 50Hz

Deyan reported back yesterday, that this patch also works for his wt901, and that he's connected his WT901 back to j20 now. |
Got WT901 via SerialPIO now working reliable. Also tested if WT901_INSTEAD_OF_SOUND still works = yes.
It's still draft as I wait for Deyan to test it also (he's on the road for a week), but like to comment before forget ;-)
Neopixel:
For easier communication-error identification (as well as helper during my debugging), I added a magenta color to Neopixel which flashes whenever an overflow or packet error occurs (Pico's LED was a bad idea by me, as it's hidden by RTK2B).
If accepted and merged, we probably should also add other SerialPIO devices to check if they also get affected by the SerialPIO timing issue. "Sound" probably also, but the sound packets are much smaller. CoverUI?!
For this I had to slow down the normal Emergency flash rate by one more bit. Without this, visual identification wasn't possible and you quickly got blind :-/
This PR also contain a tiny nv_config fix for a compiler warning, as long as #80 isn't merged.
