As long as the packet is <= NMEA_MAX.  Which is good.

Good.

Done, and pushed.

Now that I have the basics in, I have some work to do.  The S2525F8-BD-RTK
claims cm level accuracy when used in base+rover mode.  But I have yet
to find the doc I need for that.

I am in awe that cm-level is possible real-time.

The board also puts NMEA and RTCM on different serial ports.  So I'll have
to learn how gpsd does RTCM and then get this implementation supported.
