This PR removes the entire VirtualSerial2 directory and all its contents from the repository. VirtualSerial2 was a Windows C++ virtual serial port driver project that existed as a completely separate component from the main SharpCAT C# library.

What was removed

  • VirtualSerial2/ directory containing:
    • C++ project files (VirtualSerial2um.vcxproj, fakemodem2um.vcxproj)
    • Visual Studio solution file (VirtualSerial.sln)
    • Windows driver source code (.c, .h files)
    • Resource files (.rc, .inx files)
    • Project documentation

Impact

  • No functional impact on the main SharpCAT library
  • Repository size reduced by removing unused component
  • Simplified repository structure focusing on core C# functionality
  • Build process remains unchanged - all existing VS Code tasks and dotnet commands work identically

Verification

  • ✅ Main SharpCAT project builds successfully with same warnings as before
  • ✅ All development tasks (build, clean, restore, publish) function correctly
  • ✅ No references to VirtualSerial2 remain anywhere in the repository
  • ✅ No broken dependencies or missing file references

The VirtualSerial2 component had no integration with the main SharpCAT project and could be safely removed without affecting any existing functionality.
