Support for sending text to serial device over stdio?

Hi, I really like your plugin! I definitely think its the best way to do repl driven development in neovim!

I would like to be able to use your plugin to develop/execute code on serial devices (microcontrollers) for example a microcontroller running micropython, ulisp, or some forth.

I'm not sure the best/most compatible way to do this. It would be great to be able to send data to a program, like minicom or tio, running in a different tmux split/terminal. Or perhaps provide some interface for starting repls in conjure with user provided repl programs/commands, so you could do something like :Start-stdio "tio /dev/ttyUSB0" (https://github.com/tio/tio). something like this could maybe allow people to start repls for a currently unsupported language as well (like gforth)?

I'm not sure if this would be an easy thing to do or not. I had a look at some of the fennel code for python over stdio, but I'm not really familiar with fennel.
