   This Sketch demonstrates how to use onReceive(callbackFunc) with HardwareSerial

   void HardwareSerial::onReceive(OnReceiveCb function, bool onlyOnTimeout = false)

   It is possible to register an UART callback function that will be called
   every time that UART receives data and an associated UART interrupt is generated.

   In summary, HardwareSerial::onReceive() works like an RX Interrupt callback, that
   can be adjusted using HardwareSerial::setRxFIFOFull() and HardwareSerial::setRxTimeout().

   In case that <onlyOnTimeout> is not changed or it is set to <false>, the callback function is
   executed whenever any event happens first (FIFO Full or RX Timeout).
   OnReceive will be called when every 120 bytes are received(default FIFO Full),
   or when RX Timeout occurs after 1 UART symbol by default.

   This example demonstrates a way to create a String with all data received from UART0 only
   after RX Timeout. This example uses an RX timeout of about 3.5 Symbols as a way to know
   when the reception of data has finished.
   In order to achieve it, the sketch sets <onlyOnTimeout> to <true>.

   The onReceive() callback is called whenever the RX ISR is triggered.
   It can occur because of two possible events:

   1- UART FIFO FULL: it happens when internal UART FIFO reaches a certain number of bytes.
      Its full capacity is 127 bytes. The FIFO Full threshold for the interrupt can be changed
      using HardwareSerial::setRxFIFOFull(uint8_t fifoFull).
      Default FIFO Full Threshold is set in the UART initialization using HardwareSerial::begin()
      This will depend on the baud rate used when begin() is executed.
      For a baud rate of 115200 or lower, it it just 1 byte, mimicking original Arduino UART driver.
      For a baud rate over 115200 it will be 120 bytes for higher performance.
      Anyway, it can be changed by the application at any time.

   2- UART RX Timeout: it happens, based on a timeout equivalent to a number of symbols at
      the current baud rate. If the UART line is idle for this timeout, it will raise an interrupt.
      This time can be changed by HardwareSerial::setRxTimeout(uint8_t rxTimeout).
      <rxTimeout> is bound to the clock source.
      In order to use it properly, ESP32 and ESP32-S2 shall set the UART Clock Source to APB.

   When any of those two interrupts occur, IDF UART driver will copy FIFO data to its internal
   RingBuffer and then Arduino can read such data. At the same time, Arduino Layer will execute
   the callback function defined with HardwareSerial::onReceive().

   <bool onlyOnTimeout> parameter can be used by the application to tell Arduino to only execute
   the callback when Rx Timeout happens, by setting it to <true>.
   At this time all received data will be available to be read by the Arduino application.
   The application shall set an appropriate RX buffer size using
   HardwareSerial::setRxBufferSize(size_t new_size) before executing begin() for the Serial port.

   MODBUS timeout of 3.5 symbol is based on these documents:
