Subject: [PATCH] This commit contains 2 changes: Added support for different
 size of TX and RX buffer sizes. Added support for buffer sizes bigger than
 256 bytes.

Added support for different size of TX and RX buffer sizes.
The default values remain the same. If you want to have different values
define SERIAL_TX_BUFFER_SIZE and SERIAL_RX_BUFFER_SIZE on the command
line

Added support for buffer sizes bigger than 256 bytes.
The type of the indexes is decided upon the size of the buffers. So
there is no increase in program/data size when the buffers are smaller
than 257
