This test failed on the pixracer because the subscriber thread was too slow
and thus orb messages got lost. This behavior is expected, but the test
should not fail because of that, so we increase the sleeping time.
This fixes a subtle bug: the instance parameter of orb_advertise is an output
parameter and thus its value can be random. However in node_open this value
is accessed and thus the open(...) call could succeed even though it should
not. This can happen for example if a second advertiser of a topic calls
orb_advertise_multi with *instance=0.
The existing implementation worked only because *instance was initialized
with -1 in most cases.
Set a default path relative to current dir for the posix target.
Running make posixrun will create the required directoroes and then run
mainapp from its build location.
PX4_ROOTFSDIR is set to nothing for nuttx.

The existing orb_advert_t use thoughout the code sometimes tries
to treat it as a file descriptor and there are checks for < 0
and ::close calls on orb_advert_t types which is an invalid use
of an object pointer, which is what orb_advert_t really is.
Initially I had changed the -1 initializations to 0 but it was
suggested that this should be nullptr. That was a good recommendation
but the definition of orb_advert_t had to change to void * because
you cannot initialize a uintptr_t as nullptr.

The calls to orb_advertise were being mishandled throughout the code.
There were ::close() calls on memory pointers, there were checks
against < 0 when it is a pointer to a object and values larger than
0x7ffffffff are valid. Some places orb_advert_t variables were
being initialized as 0 other places as -1.
The orb_advert_t type was changed to uintptr_t so the pointer value
would not be wrapped as a negative number. This was causing a failure
on ARM.
Tests for < 0 were changed to == 0 since a null pointer is the valid
representation for error, or uninitialized.

In the upstream tree ringbuffer.h includes the method implementations
in the header file which causes multiple definitions in the link for
other targets. Changed so ringbuffer.cpp is build separately for other
platforms and is included by ringbuffer.h on NuttX.
uORB changes do not link without uORBTest_UnitTest.cpp enabled for
the NuttX build.
px4_getopt was not exported and wasn't visible in NuttX build.
The makefiles were restored to be as close as possible to upstream
so the NuttX build builtin's work again. The code will have to be
refactored after the merge.

The latency_test used to pass an object pointer as argv which
won't work in the posix port because it expects argv to be a
null terminated array of character pointers (which it makes a
copy of).
The test was refactored to use a singleton pattern and avoid
having to pass the object pointer to the thread.

uORB was refactored in order to support the MuORB changes required
for QURT. Those changes wil be added in a subsequent commit.
The files are split out by posix and nuttx so the changes are visible.
When this has been tested, the files can be re-merged and re-tested.
