Allocate per-instance data for drivers from the heap
rather than as static variables from the .data segment.
This converts > 800 bytes of RAM from being always consumed
as static data into being allocated from the heap only when
a particular feature is enabled in the hwsettings object.
A minimal config (no receivers, flexi port disabled, main port
disabled) leaves 2448 bytes of free heap. That's our new baseline.
Approximate RAM (heap) costs of enabling various features:
+ 632 Serial Telemetry (includes 400 bytes of Rx/Tx buffers)
+ 108 PWM Rcvr
+ 152 PPM Rcvr
+ 112 Spektrum Rcvr
+ 24 S.Bus (Should be closer to 68 since driver is still using
static memory)
There are still some drivers that pre-allocate all of their memory
as static data. It'll take some work to convert those over to
dynamically allocating their instance data.
