Not yet functional. Full implementation will provide an IOCTL interface to
do bi-directional transfer. will model the interface after Linux.

Added more queue support to linux/px4_layer.
Use virt char devices for ms5611, and mavlink.
Added more HRT functionality. uORB latency test
now fails. Likely due to bad HRT impl for Linux.

The dataman module now works under linux using /tmp/dataman as the
file path. Two files from NuttX were added to the Linux impl for
single linked queue handling.

The previous name implied some kind of daemon. AppState is
aggregated state of an application's running state and interfaces
to request app termination, and check app state.

The High Resilution Timer functions are stubbed out for now.
Certain queue functions are required to compile uORB so adding
the queue.c from NuttX.

Modified uint32_t casts of pointers to unsigned long for portability.
It otherwise breaks on x86_64.
Added _PX4_IOC to handle the conflice between _IOC on Linux and NuttX.
Removed use of px4::ok() because it cannot be used in a thread based
implementation. Changed to use px4::AppMgr which uses ok() on ROS.
Removed up_cxxinitialize.c from Linux build.

The following libs can now be built under Linux:
lib/mathlib
lib/geo
lib/geo_lookup
The constants used for ROS are now shared with Linux in
px4_defines.h

Uncomment the following line in setup.mk and comment out the line above
to enable the Linux build.
export PX4_TARGET_OS = linux
The build uses the clang compiler by default. The final bundled executable
is mainapp located in:
Build/linux_default.build/mainapp
When you run mainapp it will provide a list of the built-in apps. You can
type in the commands to run such as:
hello_main start
Because the Linux build is threaded and does not support tasks or processes,
it cannot call errx, exit() _exit(), etc. It also requires unique scoped
variables to test if a thread is running or if an application should exit.
The px4::AppMgr class was added in px4_app.h for this purpose. The
hello sample app demonstrates how this is used.
