For QCDM devices we want most of what MMSerialPort does, but not
the AT command handling stuff since the commands and responses
aren't AT commands nor are they even strings. So convert everything
that MMSerialPort does into a GByteArray, and let MMAtSerialPort
handle the conversion to strings when necessary.
It turns out that "Modem is [NOT] registered" is not a good indicator
of whether the card has service or not; instead some of the AT!STATUS
response is needed to really determine registration state or not.
at!pcstate is what Sierra CDMA modems use instead of AT+CFUN for
powering the radio on and off. It doesn't turn the modem off completely
like AT+CFUN=0 does for many GSM devices though, so it's quite a lot nicer.
