libftdi version 1.5

--------------------------------------------------------------------

libftdi - A library (using libusb) to talk to FTDI's UART/FIFO chips

including the popular bitbang mode.

The following chips are supported:

* FT230X

- FT4232H / FT2232H

- FT232R  / FT245R

- FT2232L / FT2232D / FT2232C

- FT232BM / FT245BM (and the BL/BQ variants)

- FT8U232AM / FT8U245AM

libftdi requires libusb 1.x.

The AUTHORS file contains a list of all the people

that made libftdi possible what it is today.

Changes

-------

* Implement tc[io]flush methods & deprecate broken purge_buffers methods

  Please check your code for ftdi_usb_purge_rx_buffer(),

  ftdi_usb_purge_tx_buffer() and ftdi_usb_purge_buffers()

  and migrate to the new ftdi_tc[io]flush() methods.

  Old code will continue to function, but you'll get

  a deprecation warning during compilation.

* Add program to test buffer flush (purge) functionality

* Add kernel driver auto attach/detach.

  See new AUTO_DETACH_REATACH_SIO_MODULE option

* Add ftdi_setflowctrl_xonxoff()

* ftdi_eeprom / eeprom handling:

  * Unify handling of all boolean eeprom flags

  * Add device release number support

  * Add channel_a_driver support for type xxR chips

  * Add support for group0 drive levels on x232H chips

  * Fix handling of high_current_drive parameter

  * Fix inverted handling of VCP driver field for TYPE_R chips

  * New --verbose option for eeprom decode operation

* Add example code for async mode

* Add SPDX license identifiers to the core library & ftdi_eeprom

* Various python SWIG wrapper improvements

* Various cmake file improvements

* Fix small bugs in error code paths
