Ensure that when the terrabyte option is passed in it is treated as a numeric (float) value instead of a string.  Multiplying by a string crashes the program.

Add build_edc_ini script

Still requires more testing.

Added enable_fir to Parameter block settings to allow models
other than sei to use FIR filters.

Update rtcds to work with latest code

rtcds lsmod now checks local_dc and cps_xmit processes. Also checks all dolphin modules. Closes #122

rtcds start and stop no longer require a model to be enabled, since we don't use "enabled" systemd units to start models at boot. Instead rtcds start and rtcds stop check to see if the model is active or not.

rtcds start now has a sleep between starts. This puts a gap between IOP starts and user model starts, sidestepping a race condition.

Also ignores errors when building every model, allowing for expected errors such as channels missing from the channels file. Closes #134

Standalone edc timing

See merge request cds/advligorts!141

Renaming delay_multiplier to delay_ms to make its purpose clearer.

The edc and local_dc operate off different (but close) start signals.  The edc starts based off of system time/gps, while the local_dc starts off of the iop model finishing.  These two clocks are different.  This adjusts the delay to start a little faster which has shown more stable data streams on the test stand.

This is a quick fix.  Better synchronization should be looked at after the release.

Allow a negative delay (defaults to -10ms).  This starts the data write early when negative.  This is done to mitigate the race between the streamers/local_dc and the edcu both
triggering off of the 16hz time cycles.  This makes the edcu work more like a fe in that it gets its data ready early.

with RCG V4.0 changes in kernel object generation
At this point, user models compile and run. Still need to work on
IOP.

Shorten the standalone_edc's epics variable names

See merge request cds/advligorts!140

Adjusting the suffixes/names for the edcu epics variables to keep them managable.

Do not broadcast epics information if a prefix is not given.
