Enable battx_options for periphs if useful.
Enable the options parameter for the battery monitor on AP_Periph devices if they could be useful - ie, battery summing is enabled and in use on a node with more than one source for battery inputs.
Only define options in a single place
Single definition for non periph builds or if AP_BATTERY_SUM_ENABLED
we want the lua garbage collector to be used to re-use memory where
possible. This implements a suggestion from Thomas to avoid heap
expansion unless the last allocation failed
* remove unnecessary nullptr check, these are always called from an
initialized AP_DroneCAN so if it's nullptr something has gone
horrifically wrong
* pass in driver index instead of repeatedly calling function to get it
* simplify error handling; knowing exactly which allocation failed is not
super helpful and one failing likely means subsequent ones will too,
as it can only fail due to being out of memory

this is the loop which ensures the amount of data sent to the mavlink client (usually Python) is limited - if we don't do this then we lose vast amounts of data when running at large speedups.
By attempting to process inbound data we may realise that the TCP connection has been dropped, and in that case we will start to listen for another connection.
This allows you to terminate the sim_vehicle.py MAVProxy and have it automagically restart (when running under GDB). This is very useful for testing MAVProxy patches with SITL; it's a different workflow to opening an output and connecting a new version of MAVProxy to that outout.
- correctly fill data-ready register
- adjust for different register configuration the driver shoves in
- correct WHOAMI register length
- correct 8-bit register reads in variable-length-register i2c simulation
In particular allows the use of the gimbal using PROTOCOL2 attached to a
DroneCAN bus. ArduPilot 4.6 is recommended due to the timeout bug causing
message sends to fail regularly on 4.5.
Tested also that misconfiguring the CAN bus will result in the driver
failing to start, though the error message will be less specific.
on H730 we are overflowing the ITCM area for SPRacingH7RF and other boards are not far behind.
Step away from the edge by removing this function which should never be in a fast path
AP_ADSB: uAvionix Transponder Status V3
+ Current version of ping200X sends the v1 status message periodically and the v3 status message in response to the transponder control message, so ardupilot needs to handle both gracefully; version 1 and version 3 are very different in structure and naively assuming one version over another will cause errors.
AP_ADSB: Process additional xpdr status v3 fields
AP_ADSB: Send GCS xpdr status at least every 10s
AP_ADSB: Send ping200X estimated HPL
+ When AP sends the ping200X the GPS data GDL90 message, it needs to provide a valid HPL for the ping200X to report a valid NIC.
AP_ADSB: Don't send unsolicited transponder status
AP_ADSB: Better initialization of xpdr id/config
AP_ADSB: Better initialization of frontend status
AP_ADSB: Suggestions from review
if a user has set CAN_D1_UC_ESC_RV which is the mask of ESCs that are
reversible we were sending -8191 when disarmed, which is full reverse
throttle. This is the correct output when armed as it is treated as
full reverse at "PWM" 1000 and stopped at 1500, but when disarmed we
should always send zero or the user may find all ESCs spin up at full
reverse when disarmed if the ESC supports reverse throttle (which is
rare in DroneCAN ESCs)
the rate of CAN servo messages is controlled by the servo. Having this
streaming means we can miss logging when there is more than one CAN
servo.
In the future we will move to holding the CAN servo data in a data
structure like we do for ESCs, and then log at a regular rate, but for
now this fixes the issue
