KESS3: reading, writing and cloning of Foton Sauvana transmission control units.

With this update, KESS3 allows you to work in BENCH mode on Bosch ZF 6HP19 TCUs, directly from the transmission control unit connector without opening the unit. You can perform complete reprogramming, reading and cloning, expanding the options available for TCU repair and replacement.
