The AHRS comms module now sync's with the AHRS and
exchanges interesting data periodically. Whenever
the link to the AHRS is down, the AHRSComms alarm is
raised.
This is fairly basic for now but provides the last
piece of the infrastructure to move data back/forth
between the OP and the AHRS.

PIOS SPI devices may now make use of automatic CRC generation
and checking on block transfers. Only supports CRC8 for now.
Since the SPI interface CRC calculation continues across message
boundaries (ie. not reset on every transfer), we must manually reset
the CRC registers for every transfer to allow the two sides of the
link to resynchronize.
Unfortunately, resetting the CRC registers requires disabling the
SPI peripheral which must now be done on every block transfer.
Note: The last byte of the tx buffer is never sent and is assumed to
be a place holder for the tx CRC8.
Note: The last byte of the rx buffer is expected to hold the rx CRC8.

The Attitude module will soon be handling updates for all UAVObjects
that require data from the AHRS. To reflect this expansion of scope,
it has been renamed to AHRSComms.

This object currently only holds the serial number of the attached
AHRS board. This will be retrieved each time communications are
(re)established with the AHRS board.
This will eventually be extended to hold some statistics for OP to
AHRS comms.

This object currently holds only the raw magnetometer readings and
an instantaneous heading calculation which are only really useful
for debugging. The contents of this object will change often as
development progresses.
Note: The magnetometer values are often garbage due to a problem
with i2c software on the AHRS.

The input data lines between the OP and AHRS boards had internal
pull-ups enabled. This seemed to be causing issues early on
during development of the inter-board comms. Not sure if this
is still necessary but this is how the current code was tested.

This defines the SPI message format as well as a few
initial messages for moving data across the link.
The v0 messages are place holders for firmware download
in the bootloader.
The v1 messages are to be used by the main application.
Note: This is not the final protocol definition.
Subject to change without notice.

Mark the device specific DMA IRQ handlers as strongly linked
aliases for the genericly named interrupt vector symbol.
Here's how this works...
* The address of the symbol DMA1_Channel2_IRQHandler is written
into the DMA1/Channel2 interrupt vector by the linker script.
* The startup_*.S file specifies Default_Handler() as a weakly
linked alias for DMA1_Channel2_IRQHandler.
* We now override the weakly linked alias with the strongly linked
PIOS_SPI_sdcard_irq_handler().
* This results in the address of PIOS_SPI_sdcard_irq_handler() being
written to the vector table for the DMA1/Channel2 interrupt.
* The PIOS_SPI_sdcard_irq_handler() function is now called whenever
the DMA1/Channel2 interrupt fires.

The AHRSComms alarm will be raised whenever the OP board
is not able to communicate with the AHRS board.
The navigation software on the OP board could use this
alarm to trigger its best attempt at an emergency landing.

The sequence number field for the attitude solution is
likely unnecessary. Removed.

- Created a pluggable COM layer
- Converted COM + USART init into static initializers
rather than typedefs
- Generalized the USB HID COM API to match the USART
API.
- Changed USART and COM layers to be data driven rather
than #ifdef'ing/switching on the specifics of each port

Added support for SPI slave configurations to the pios SPI layer.
Converted the board specific configuration for the PIOS SPI layer to
use const static initializers rather than #defines (see pios_board.c).
SPI interface between the OP board and the AHRS is now operational at
a basic level, capable of moving simple single byte messages between
boards. Multi-byte, CRC protected messages will be added on top of this.

Split the floss-jtag.cfg file into separate versions
for OP and AHRS.
Push AHRS onto non-default ports for gdb, tcl and
telnet.
Update the AHRS gdb setup script to point at the new
gdb port.
Add (commented out) example sytax to support distinguishing
between multiple floss-jtag boards that don't have serial
numbers. Uses the usb bus address of each device as the
selector. See this patch posted to the openocd mailing list
for how to add this functionality to openocd:
