adb devices -l prints one device per line, containing, separated by spaces:

• the device serial,
• the device state,
• a list of key:value pairs.

However, the device serial itself may contain spaces, making a simple split ambiguous.

To avoid ambiguity, parse the string backwards:

• first, parse all the trailing values until the device state, identified using a list of well-known values;
• finally, treat the remaining leading token as the device serial.
