scripts/contrib/serdevtry: add script to handle transient serial terminals
When running automated tests (or just generally interacting with) boards whose serial console devices are on the board itself and thus disappear when powered down or practically disconnected, such as the BeagleBone white, some terminal programs (e.g. picocom) will exit when the device disappears and need to be restarted after the serial device returns. This script handles this automatically for such terminal programs.
