SoftwareSerial support?

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
I am using a ESP-32S and need its hardwareserial for another device (Communicates at 115200 baud) however, need to also talk to a Modbus RTU device at 9600. Unfortunately, this library only supports Hardwareserial.
Describe the solution you'd like
Support for SoftwareSerial would be awesome
Describe alternatives you've considered
I suppose my only real alternative is using Serial0 which is kinda icky, trying to put the other device on Software which I dont think is gonna work well, or look for another Library.
Edit: I have now stumbled upon ModbusMaster which does support SoftwareSerial - I will be giving that a test.
There is a Fork of eModbus done by serfreeman1337, that seems to have added SoftwareSerial. I did not try it myself nor have any shares in serfreeman1337's developments, but that could be a solution.
I ended up using ModbusMaster which works fine for my needs, thanks regardless!
Fine with that. Good luck!
