Description
Hi
I have some example RP2040 code that works in the Ardunio IDE without fail. When ported to Platform IO the code fails on the following:
Serial.printf("timers_init failed - %d\n", err_code);
src/main.cpp: In function 'void loop()':
src/main.cpp:22:10: error: 'class arduino::UART' has no member named 'printf'; did you mean 'print'?
22 | Serial.printf("timers_init failed - %d\n", err_code);
This works in the ardinio IDE.
Thanks

Research direction
Start with src/main.cpp at line 22 and reproduce the RP2040 PlatformIO build error involving Serial.printf. Compare the PlatformIO Arduino serial implementation with the Arduino IDE behavior; done should mean the reported example builds and the formatting call works, or the supported alternative is documented.
