Research direction
The issue names no files, tests, or entry points. Start by reviewing the existing resource ownership and type-state APIs related to UART, GPIO, and constrain/split operations, then determine whether a reusable embedded-hal interface is appropriate; done means a clear, agreed approach for safely repurposing the pin.

Description
Hi!
I cannot find any valuable information about how to handle my case:
I need to reconfigure the pin between its alternate function (UART in my case) and GPIO input. I am rust beginner, very impressed by the type state and entire safety net built around it, but I can't see any way to unconstrain / unsplit resources I'd like to repurpose.
Not sure if it fits general embedded-hal scope, because handling hardware resources is kinda device specific, but I think this is very generic case - perhaps some interface could be provided (or exists) to allow this kind of behavior...
Not sure if I am not missing something by using wrong keywords, but I didn't find anything viable on this topic
