  • Change "compat serial" flag to default off
  • Remove compat serial override from maintained drivers

This is long overdue, but we can flip the NEEDS_COMPAT_SERIAL flag
to off now, since almost everything is migrated and then new drivers
won't have to add it.

The fact that there are no changes to the test matrix shows that this
doesn't change the status of any drivers. All the ones that were
inheriting the old default have been explicitly opted into compat
behavior.
Almost all the drivers in the tree now opt out of the byte-compat
behavior. The default has been flipped, so we can remove that from
all those drivers and remove it from the PR template so people don't
have to think about it anymore.
This will upload the config file, debug log, and image file to an
issue if the user provides credentials.
This should fix situations where the default encoding (i.e. on windows)
is not sufficient for writing certain characters. That could be paths
(in the recent list) or anything else we store there that expects
full unicode.

Fixes #11385
A number of things weren't right with this, likely for a while, since
we had no tests or examples in the tree. This adds three user-supplied
sample files and a test to hopefully keep it working. Fixes:

- Ignore blank entries
- Tolerate a missing "Channel Number" column
- Support the "Scan" (meaning not skip) column type
- Fix detection by being looser about what we look for

Fixes #11389
