[PATCH v6 09/14] serial: liteuart: clean up rx loop variables

[Gabriel Somlo <gsomlo@gmail.com>]

The `status` variable will always be `1` when passed into the call
to `uart_insert_char()`, so it can be eliminated altogether.

Use `u8` as the type for `ch`, as it matches the return type of
the `litex_read8()` call which produces its value.

Changes from v5:
  - removing `status` variable altogether
  - using `u8` for `ch`, matching the type of the call producing it
    rather than that of the calls that consume its value
