Hi Svyatoslav, Ion,

Thank you for these series.

I'm happy to fastboot getvar all implemented since it's standardly
supported on Android phones.

fastboot oem console seems like a nice debug tool as well when no
console is available.

I do have some concerns with the series, mainly because the introduction
of the "MORE" byte response.
"MORE" is not part of the fastboot specification [1].

However, that specification documents "TEXT", which, per my
understanding, should allow to send multiple responses as well.

Could we implement this using "TEXT" instead ?
