Get an instance of the Serial class, depending on port/url. The port is not
opened when the keyword parameter 'do_not_open' is true, by default it
is. All other parameters are directly passed to the __init__ method when
the port is instantiated.
The list of package names that is searched for protocol handlers is kept in
``protocol_handler_packages``.
e.g. we want to support a URL ``foobar://``. A module
``my_handlers.protocol_foobar`` is provided by the user. Then
``protocol_handler_packages.append("my_handlers")`` would extend the search
path so that ``serial_for_url("foobar://"))`` would work.
