Honestly I don't know and I didn't test what would happen if no resistors were
used. So maybe you're right, it would be safer to look in the ID table up after
every read attempt.

I've reserved 4 bits per cycle type so the possible values range into [0 - 15].
I thought it would be enough to anticipate future evolution like SPI 8-8-8.
Also it leaves more bits available for future usage.
Finally, I've chosen 4 bits and this order so when debugging and/or printing
the value in hex format, you can easily decode the corresponding protocol:

SPI 1-1-4 -> 0x00000114
SPI 1-2-2 -> 0x00000122
SPI 4-4-4 -> 0x00000444

Anyway I don't mind using 8 bits instead if it is preferred.

This enum was created only for stronger type checking; Except for that, there
is no strong reason to keep the enum. So I don't mind removing it if other
people agree with you.

Thanks for your review :)
