Autotest: common.py add new base class and test
Autotest : Common add heartbeat handling on wait_mode timeout
Autotest: common.py add reach_heading_manual and reach_distance_manual
Autotest: new autotest implementation for Rover
Autotest : rover add drive_square test
Autotest: new autotest implementation for Copter
Autotest: new autotest implementation for Plane
Autotest: new autotest implementation for Sub
Autotest: new autotest implementation
Autotest: new autotest implementation for QuadPlane
Autotest : Sub disable GCS_Failsafe on autotest to prevent timeout. The failsafe aren't currently tested on Sub
Tools: don't need to pass option on first mavproxy
Tools: reformat common.py and add commun function
Tools: use new common functions
Tools: move functions from rover to commun and reorder
Tools: add and use set_rc function with timeout
Tools: fix style for pep8
Added \r\n to the expect() string as recomended at:
http://pexpect.readthedocs.io/en/stable/overview.html#find-the-end-of-line-cr-lf-conventions
this should work on both windows and linux systems
pexpect says it will always do a minimal (non greedy) matching and docs explicitly say that a .+ expression will always return only one character. These lines in autotest are looking for \S+, which, believing the documentation, would only return one character of the log file path.
Now we know that's not true, neither for Linux or for Windows (given the logs from @karthikdesai), so I can only assume that it does a greedy match but only for the characters it has received at the time expect is called.
Apparently, in the machines we are using autotest, it isn't a problem since MAVProxy is likely fast to give its output to pexpect before the expect method is called. On @karthikdesai's machine that wasn't happening since his machine was more or less loaded.
Concluding, this looks like a correct fix in the sense that it extends the regex pattern to wait for the end of line (and probably other places could benefit from it too).

Try to make the various param files to follow similar namings:
- Lowercase the few ones using uppercase
- Use dash to separate name components
- Start with "copter", "plane", "rover", etc instead of the mix we
had
- Remove "params" from the filename since it's redundant with the
extension
