slcan_attach: added '-f' commandline option to read status flags.

In the case of pending bus errors on some slcan adapters the read of the
status flags resets the adapter and clears the error LED.

This patch adds the commandline option to send the status read command to the
adapter as suggested by Thorsten Godau.
