[Coco] Finally starting with DW, and taking a beating

[Aaron Wolfe]

There is an option in the config menu "restart instance device" that may
avoid needing to disconnect/reconnect.  Some systems are cranky, never have
found a universal way to make the serial port change settings after its
been opened with one set.  Unplug/replug should do it for USB devices and
dw4 should handle the disappearance and reappearance fairly well.   That's
the intention at least :-)
