Description of the new feature/enhancement

Hello everyone, I'm currently doing embedded device programing like U-Boot; OpenWrt; STM32, and as you may know, these devices use the UART port to output some debug info and/or implement command line interface, I'd like to use Windows Terminal as the terminal program to deal with these thing. I'm sure this will help me and many other embedded developers a lot.

Proposed technical implementation details (optional)

The UART port from the device will be connected to the PC's USB port through a "USB to TTL converter", then it will show up in the Device Manager as a COM port device, what I want is, from here, I can create a new profile in the Windows Terminal, configure it to connect to the dedicated COM port, set Baud Rate; Data Bits; Stop Bits; Parity; Flow Control, then use the device's command line in the Windows Terminal.
