A string name allows to more easily expand the table: the board is
responsible for the name and doesn't have to declare it as a enum or
define. It's also easier to add 2 sensors of the same type.
This was previously used to allow to save a state in a SPIDriver so we
could synchronize the initialization of AP_Compass and
AP_InertialSensor.
It was only used by MPU9250 and is not used anymore since the move to
AuxiliaryBus initialization and it's not used anymore since c3dae6f
("AP_InertialSensor: MPU9250: Remove methods not used anymore")
This commit changes the way libraries headers are included in source files:
- If the header is in the same directory the source belongs to, so the
notation '#include ""' is used with the path relative to the directory
containing the source.
- If the header is outside the directory containing the source, then we use
the notation '#include <>' with the path relative to libraries folder.
Some of the advantages of such approach:
- Only one search path for libraries headers.
- OSs like Windows may have a better lookup time.
Allowing to change the SPI device state allows us to save the
information whether the device was already initialized and avoid 2
separate drivers to initialize it.
Add support for /dev/spidev<bus>.<cs> in-kernel SPI CS handling, and convert
existing SPI devices over.
* Add a new member _subdev to the LinuxSPIDeviceDriver class, and initialiser
in LinuxSPIDevice constructor. Use subdev 0 for GPIO-managed CS
* Extend the _cs_pin to signed 16 bits and define SPI_CS_KERNEL (-1) for
kernel-managed CS
* Move to per-device file descriptors (required for in-kernel CS)
* Extend spidev filenames to include bus and subdevice numbers, possibly
longer than 1 digit each
* Allow support for platforms enumerating /dev/spidevNNN from non-zero bases
* Convert existing users over to the new API

This adds a check for trying to assert two CS pins on the same bus
at the same time. The change involves moving the _device handles into the
DeviceManager class, and accessing via static methods.
This also moves the semaphore to be per-bus rather than per-device,
which fixes the problem with bad MS5611 transfers.
