LoRa override sync-byte (sync-word)

[keever50]

tldr
The LoRa API does not support changing the LoRa sync-byte, which is required in some LoRa implementations.
Overriding using a function can solve this issue.

Problem
I have a big issue porting this project "Meshtastic" to Zephyr because the LoRa API does not allow changing the sync-byte (or called sync-word) to more than 2 hard-coded bytes, which are selected with a bool called PublicNetwork.
Meshtastic the protocol uses 0x2B as sync-word to not interfere with other protocols.
Is there a reason for this 2 restrictive hard-coded bytes?

Dirty workaround
I got around this problem by changing the hard-coded byte manually in the driver header, but this is far from ideal.

Possible solutions
The solution would be to allow the programmer to enter the sync word instead of a single bool.
Or have a function that lets the programmer force override the sync-word without breaking the compatibility of current implementation.

Snippets

Here i modified the private sync-word to 0x2B

Here you see the bool switch that selects two hard-coded bytes. This is where the main issue lays.
