serial: Fix empty package and use shared lib instead of static lib.

[wesleyel]

The older recipe of serial built a static lib libserial.a.

Which was contained in FILES_${PN}-dev and FILES_${PN} is empty.

This will make bitbake unhapply and raise Nothing provides serial needed by other-recipe problem.

To fix it we need add CMake set_target_properties function.

Can you submit this patch upstream ? and also set Upstream-Status in the patch accordingly.

[wesleyel]

@kraj Thanks for your reminder. I have appended Upstream-Status label.

I noticed that the maintainer of the serial project has not had any activity in the past 10 months. Maybe in this case we can merge it directly into meta-oe.

Sorry. I have not test ptest feature on my project.

Can you give me some hint for fix unimplemented-ptest Error?

I noticed that we have CATKIN_ENABLE_TESTING macro to enable test binary building. But I don't know how to make them integrating with ptest.

Enable ptest via adding it to local.conf

DISTRO_FEATURES:append = " ptest"

then try building it again.
