Hi!

I am involved in a DIY project to build a remote observatory. I found some tutorials to build my own dust cap using an Arduino or ESP8266 microcontroller and a small servo.

I have created the firmware for the dust cap based on the SnapCap/Flip-flat protocol.

The point is that I created the firmware on a ESP8266 connect over WiFi, but I just realized that the Indi SnapCap driver only supports Serial communication.

I was reviewing the source code and get into INDI::DustCapInterface does not include support for TCP connections, but there are other drivers that have support for TCP on the base class, for example, INDI::Dome or INDI::Telescope.

I feel the place will be the INDI::DustCapInterface or the like, but I think I don't have the development competence to do it properly, and it will require a more gifted mind.

But I think I can make it on the SnapCap class. Did anyone consider it before? Adding it on the SnapCap driver?
