rp2/machine_uart: Fix handling of serial break condition.

The FIFO reports not only the bytes read, but also 4 error bits. These were
not checked, leading to NUL value read in case of break and possible
garbage bytes being written on parity/framing error.

This patch addresses the issue that NUL bytes are incorrectly read on
break, and at least provides the boilerplate code and comments for error
handling, that may be implemented in the future.
