+- PLOC SUPV MPSoC update re-try logic for the `WRITE_MEMORY` command. These packets form  > 98%
+  of all packets required for a software update, but the update mechanism is not tolerant against
+  occasional glitches on the RS485 communication to the PLOC SUPV. A simple re-try mechanism which
+  tries to re-attempt packet handling up to three times for those packets is introduced.
