[DONE] Interested only at specific flags in a Event [patch]

[sam0737]

I am on 2.5.2.
I am using chEvtWaitAnyTimeout to wait for serial event and some other application events. For the serial, I am only interested at CHN_CONNECTED | CHN_INPUT_AVAILABLE. I don't want the thread to be waken up by the CHN_OUTPUT_EMPTY.
The problem is exaggerated when combined with Win32's serial_lld.c, because it is polling the queue and raising the event for every tick.

Hence I suggest adding a chEvtRegisterMaskWithFlags(), so application can wait for specific flags it is interested at.

Hi,

It is a good idea, it could be eventually added to version 3.0.0. Adding to the TODO.
