uart_insert_char() expects both `status` and `ch` to be of type
`unsigned int`. Switching `ch` to 8-bit was a typo, thanks for
catching it!

I'm going to use `unsigned int status, ch` in v3, to match the
signature of `uart_insert_char()` -- hope that's OK. This will be
a separate commit preceding the "move rx loop out of poll timer"
change.

I'm adding a separate commit to document this (in v3) as well.

Thanks,
