The UART supports an auto-RTS mode in which the RTS pin is automatically activated during transmission. So mark this mode as being supported even if RTS is not controlled by the driver but the UART. Also the serial core expects now at least one of both modes rts-on-send or rts-after-send to be supported. This is since during sanitization unsupported flags are deleted from a RS485 configuration set by userspace. However if the configuration ends up with both flags unset, the core prints a warning since it considers such a configuration invalid (see uart_sanitize_serial_rs485()).
