Setting custom baudrate for which is not defined Bnnn constant is possible
via BOTHER flag and then filling speed in c_ospeed and c_ispeed fields.
These two fields are either in struct termios or struct termios2. Former
belongs to TCGETS/TCSETS ioctls, latter to TCGETS2/TCSETS2 ioctls.
BOTHER flag with these two fields and new struct termios2 is not supported
by older versions of include header files.
Some architectures (e.g. amd64) provide both struct termios and struct
termios2, but c_ospeed and c_ispeed are only in struct termios2.
Some other architectures (e.g. alpha) provide both struct termios and struct
termios2 and both have c_ospeed and c_ispeed fields.
And some other architectures (e.g. powerpc) provide only struct termios
(no struct termios2) and it has c_ospeed and c_ispeed fields.
So basically to support all architectures it is needed to use
struct termios2 when TCGETS2/TCSETS2 is supported. Otherwise it is needed
to use struct termios with TCGETS/TCSETS (case for e.g. powerpc).
Setting input baudrate is done via IBSHIFT macro.

Changes in v4:
* Add SPDX-License-Identifier
* Correctly process split baudrates (separate output and input) via IBSHIFT
* Update commit message
Changes in v3:
* Check support for custom baudrate only based on BOTHER macro
* Use TCGETS/TCSETS/termios when TCGETS2/TCSETS2/termios2 is not available
Changes in v2:
* Use \e for backslash
* Use exit(EXIT_*) instead of return num
* Sort includes
* Add comment about possible fallback
