• Add initial test, testing the unittest itself
• Add unittest implementation based on pfalcon's micropython-unittest
• Docstrings available for all functions of functions.py, see #27
• Typing hints available for all functions of functions.py, serial.py and tcp.py, see #27

Changed

• Use default values for all registers defined in the example JSON
• TCP host example and TCP client example define a static IP address and skip further WiFi setup steps in case a Docker usage is detected by a failing import of the network module, contributes to #16

• ModbusRTU and ModbusTCP classes and related functions removed from modbus.py, see #18
• Imports changed from:
• from umodbus.modbus import ModbusRTU to from umodbus.serial import ModbusRTU
• from umodbus.modbus import ModbusTCP to from umodbus.tcp import ModbusTCP
• read_coils and read_discrete_inputs return a list with the same length as the requested quantity instead of always 8, see #12 and #25
• Common functions bytes_to_bool and to_short moved to functions.py
• Use HTTPS URL instead of SSH for submodule
• Cleanup of root README, content moved to SETUP and USAGE, contributes to #30
• Moved SETUP and USAGE into docs folder, see #26 contributes to #30
