Regarding MEGA65/m65dbg#3 and serial speed issues.

Current serial output is inefficient (repeats banner every time, includes spaces, etc).
A more efficient, but less human readable, protocol for use with m65dbg was suggested
which should improve debugging performance.

maybe improve the existing format by not repeating banner etc, but keep this human-readable-format for users that do not want to use the m65dbg.
the fpga-side serial-debugger could by default use the above human-readible-format, and when it recieves a special message from the m65dbg, the fpga-serial-debugger could switch its format to the optimised one.

This is the general plan: we can implement a command that switches the
mode. That said, I am also comfortable with us making m65dbg a mandatory
tool for using the serial debugger, if it results in significantly improved
utility.
