This adds two wrappers to the generic protocol to help interfacing
small microcontrollers (arduino et. al.)
When receiving binary data over a sequential link, it's hard to tell where a packet
starts and where it ends. Two existing solutions gets implemented with this patch:
KISS (http://www.ka9q.net/papers/kiss.html) originally developed for ham radio
packet radio devices and STX/ETX byte stuffing.
This adds only the OUT direction, IN will be implemented over the next weeks.
For implementation details on the client (microcontroller's) side, check out

This implementation is used in the c172fg project to be presented at FSweekend 2013.
- allow multiple model files in the -set.xml specification
- allow each model to be tagged with a usage string
- put models tagged 'interior' into a LOD group.
This is experimental, the LOD ranges will be made configurable soon.
Replace many lingering calls to exit() from the code,
replacing most with exception throws, which can be
caught by the existing mechanisms.
Update the option-parsing code to return an explicit
value indicating what to do (e.g., exit status to return
to the shell).
Many light aircraft include GPS loggers capable of recording the flight
path using IGC records. Lots of third party utilities are available to
analyze, process and convert igc files.
Usage: "fgfs --igc=file,out,1,OutputFile.igc"
If an invalid filter type is supplied, don't run the queries.
This showed up with GPS dialog, since the PUI combo box defaults to
no entry selected, not the first entry.
Using a new TerraSync API, make the tile manager wait on actively
syncing tiles before sending them to the SceneryPager. This resolves numerous
issues with missing tiles, including at startup.
- Enable the terrasync persistent cache
- Ensure terraysync scenery dirs exist before NavCache init, so the paths are stable
- Notify TerraSync on reposition, so we sync the full 3x3 set of tiles.
Move sqlite source to a separate location, and build with
an intermediate library target. This permits us to set compile options
easier, including an important one, NDEBUG, which improves performance.
Sqlite 3.8.0.2 also includes an updated query planner which may improve
some queries, to be tested.
