- .msg files are PascalCase
- topics are still either per msg or explicitly listed in TOPICS
- compatible structs are still generated (eg struct msg_s), but ROS2 style px4::msg::Msg is also available
- Allocate and free the node name in uORBDeviceNode.
- Add protected build support by de-allocating the name with kmm_free, when
running in kernel side. strdup allocates from the kernel heap in NuttX kernel
space.
- Remove the CDev::unregister_driver_and_memory(), it is no longer used

Don't compare pointers to metadata, but the metadata contents.
In protected/kernel build there are two sets of metadata, on on kernel
side and another in user side. Thus the comparison of pointers would just
always fail. Compare orb_id instead

Proxy all calls to the DeviceNode through Manager;
- This hides the DeviceNode from publishers and subscribers
- Manager can be made an interface class between user and kernel spaces in protected build
- This doesn't increase code size or harm the performance on flat build

There's an increasing amount of slow logged topics at 1-2Hz, which were all
updated in the same logger iteration, leading to data bursts. For log
streaming this started to exceed uart buffer sizes. By distributing updates
more equal over time those bursts are removed, reducing buffer size
requirements.
Tests showed during steady state a reduction of maximum topic updates per
iteration from 40 down to 17.
Also the SD log buffer fill level is more constant.
