usb-serial-for-android: Implement timeout-handling

Since the Android USB stack and subsequently the usb-serial-for-android
driver have problems with read-timeouts, the read-timeout is now
implemented in AndroidSerial.java. Also, DC_STATUS_TIMEOUT is returned
if there are less bytes returned than expected.

Different chipsets seem to behave differently with
usb-serial-for-android. On CP210x the read blocks until there is some
data here, but on FTDI the chip seems to return whatever is currently in
the buffer (so 0 bytes if the buffer is empty). This different behaviour
should be mitigated by the changes by this commit.
