dmesg was locking the console buffer, then writing to stdout (a pipe in
the case of the MAVLink shell).
This might block, waiting for mavlink to read from the pipe. If however
mavlink tries to write to the console at that time, the lock is already
taken.
This patch avoids nested locking by using a separate buffer.
In protected build, this needs to go to user-space initialization as it
calls apps (sercon) and launches mavlink.

Add interface functions for fetching latency buckets and counters and use
those in perf_counter.cpp. This cleans up the usage of perf counters, when variables defined in hrt_drv are not referenced directly from perf.
This also enables implementing kernel-userspace interface for those for
nuttx protected/kernel build.

This fixes the case where oneshot was enabled with multi-instance pwm_out,
triggering oneshot updates too close to each other and as a result could
lead to spinning motors while disarmed.
- no longer start sercon or mavlink usb by default
- on USB connection (VBUS) monitor serial USB at low rate and start Mavlink if there's a HEARTBEAT or nshterm on 3 consecutive carriage returns
- the mavlink USB instance is automatically stopped and serdis executed if USB is disconnected
- skipping Mavlink USB (and sercon) saves a considerable amount of memory on older boards
Add common functions, implemented for nuttx, and link to architecture specific libraries
Make a separate library to wrap nuttx random number generator as "os_random".

This is to avoid potential race conditions during startup.
All startup code runs sequentially atm, so this is just for robustness
for later (e.g. concurrent pwm_out and dshot start).
This allows modules to do a first-come-first-serve pin/timer reservation
on bootup.
E.g. camera trigger reserves any of the pins, and then PWM/DShot output
will just use the rest of the available pins.
Reduces CPU load by almost 1.5% @ 2khz on F4 and F7.
This changes the motor ordering on boards where the timer ordering does
not match the order of the timer usage in the channels defintion.
Only omnibus f4sd is affected.
This also simplifies the API a bit, since we anyway have to change the
drivers to pass additional information (the bus device index).
The orientation flag is merged with the rotation.
