  This demo is based on the GD32307C-EVAL-V1.1 board, it shows how to use the USART 
receiver timeout function.  
  Firstly, the USART sends "a usart receive timeout test example!" to the hyperterminal
and then loop waiting for receiving data from the hyperterminal. Then send data from the 
hyperterminal to USART. If you did not send any data more than 3 seconds, USART will send 
strings to the hyperterminal what you have sent and start a new round of waiting.
