[Ovmsdev] Leaf AZE1 Can1 stuck after poll 7BB group 61

I see you already checked the poll handlers don't write to the buffer, 
so that's a possible & better option.

But why do you limit the reserve() call? Clearly, the MAX_POLL_DATA_LEN 
isn't sufficient for the new poll, Wayne wants to add. Doing 
rxbuf.reserve(length + job.mlremain) should be perfectly OK, as it 
adapts to any reply size? After all, it's just a reservation, append 
will need to reallocate if it's too small. I think the module can get 
rid off MAX_POLL_DATA_LEN altogether when using the string memory directly.

Regards,
Michael
