No code changes, just file, variable and define names are changed.
First, it better describes the serial protocol used by DSMx satellite
receivers. Second, many people using Spektrum radio, assume Spektrum
protocol. This is the attempt to address those inaccuracies.
In the previous version the decoder could in rare cases get synced from
the middle of data stream in case of data byte equal to the S.Bus start
of frame (SOF) byte (wrong data will be rejected but it was not perfect).
Now it waits for the real start of frame and then checks the SOF byte.
- does not glitch when used in 2-frame mode (DM9, 9503, etc)
- does NOT provides yet DSMX stream decoding - do NOT merge
- uses a bit more time in the interrupt, but frees 16 bytes of RAM.
This is done to help decoding the weird DSMX stream which does not
contain explicit resolution/frame/lost frames info and needs special
processing (to be done yet).
TIM5-8. Also TIM1 was not handled probably (for CC either) as the name of the
IRQ is TIM1_CC and TIM1_UP for the capture compare versus update. I haven't
checked the downstream code that the registers it uses to map from a context to
event is invariant under timer channel.
PWM and PPM can now coexist in the same load and be
selected at boot time via the hwsettings UAVObject.
This is basically a complete restructuring of the
way the drivers interact with the TIM peripheral in
the STM32.
As a side effect, the PWM and PPM drivers are now
ready to support multiple instances of each.
This also provides the first step toward being able
to reassign some of the PWM input pins to be servo
output pins. Still more work required, but this is
a good start.
This allows the spektrum and sbus receiver drivers to bind
directly to the usart layer using a properly exported API
rather than overriding the interrupt handler.
Bytes are now pushed directly from the usart layer into the
com layer without any buffering. The com layer performs all
of the buffering.
A further benefit from this approach is that we can put all
blocking/non-blocking behaviour into the COM layer and not
in the underlying drivers.
Misc related changes:
- Remove obsolete .handler field from irq configs
- Adapt all users of PIOS_COM_* functions to new API
- Fixup callers of PIOS_USB_HID_Init()
Each channel was previously tracking a separate driver.
Now, channels are grouped within a channel group to save
RAM used for tracking and to better reflect how channels
are actually mapped.
Also reduce heap has it does not fit in SRAM anymore (not with current compiler).
(that's ok since if there is more space available, it will be reclaimed).

The initial baud rates of each interface are now forced in the
board init code.
Any modules using USARTs should have fields added to
their settings object to allow the user to change the
baud rate from the default by using the COM layer APIs.
Developers requiring custom baud rates before the settings
objects are in place should locally edit the cfg structs
to specify the desired baud rates.
