RE: Adapt existing Zephyr OpenThread application from nRF52DK to nRF52Dongle

An update:

After rummaging around with all sorts of settings, I've managed to get things working. Apparently this application used both Console and Shell simultaneously.

In my particular case these were the necessary changes to the prj.conf in case someone else encounters a similar issue:

# Both of these need to be set to "CDC_ACM_0". "UART_0" did not work here.
CONFIG_UART_CONSOLE_ON_DEV_NAME="CDC_ACM_0"
CONFIG_UART_SHELL_ON_DEV_NAME="CDC_ACM_0"

# Line control apparently is not necessary in this case.
CONFIG_UART_LINE_CTRL=n

# Setting the console to be a UART console in addition was necessary
CONFIG_UART_CONSOLE=y

I have yet to test if the actual Thread communication works, but at least now I have some feedback from the Dongle.
