[PATCH v5 06/12] can: slcan: allow to send commands to the adapter

[Dario Binacchi]

This is a preparation patch for the upcoming support to change the
bitrate via ip tool, reset the adapter error states via the ethtool API
and, more generally, send commands to the adapter.

Since the close command (i. e. "C\r") will be sent in the ndo_stop()
where netif_running() returns false, a new flag bit (i. e. SLF_XCMD) for
serial transmission has to be added.
