[Development] [Proposal] Future QtSerialPort with plugins architecture

[Denis Shienkov]

Yes, of course. For example, the name of a default plug-in will be defined
in DEFINES in the *.pro file at a stage of compilation of the module.

env or app parameter is not sufficient.

It is used only for specifying of other plugin's name, that is other than
default plugin.
