Makefile.am: Install MIME info file in $(datadir)/mime/packages.
This is possible since (almost) none of the changes above change or
remove public API calls of the library.
Since Autoconf places some important feature flags only into the
configuration header, it is necessary to include it globally to
guarantee a consistent build.
Set this new parameter to 0 (no timeout) at every call site. This is
consistent with previous behaviour, so cannot cause any regressions.
Waiting forever for a serial operation is clearly always wrong. Without
specific knowledge of each device and driver however, I can't choose
appropriate timeouts for each call. The maintainers of these drivers
will need to do so, and also add appropriate handling of timeouts.
When this commit is merged, a bug should be entered for each driver
that is touched by it.
This call is executed from an event handler and was previously nonblocking,
but has no partial write handling. It sends a short packet so should be OK
to block, most likely the output buffer will be empty anyway.
