new argument system for rtcds now works well.  Tested all commands.  --userland flag added but does not yet do anything."

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

Enable now controled by environmental option ALLOW_MODEL_ENABLE.  When false, rtcd enable commands cannot be issued.

Changed start to sleep for 15 seconds between model starts.  Close timing was causing timing glitches in IOP.
Changed build --all to ignore error so that it can build all the way through on the first build (no channels in channel file)

 * fix the systemd unit to use the corect argument for the listen interface 'l' instead of 'I'
 * convert the standalone_edc to use the args library, and update the documentation
 * add a '_daq' to the end of the edc's mbuf name, so that it is similar to the models
   * Note this is transparent to the user, the '_daq' should not be added on (either to the name passed into the edc or to local_dc)
 * Updated the edc test to not specify '_daq' anywhere.

Done for:
 * daqd
 * nds
 * local_dc
 * edc

For some reason the systemd unit parsing does not pick up the
STATE_DIRECTORY environment variable, so we have to expand manually.

still needed by the binary

calls "make World" and "make installWorld" respectively.

drop openmx and update dolpin drivers

updates awgtpman command line args, checks SITE/IFO exist, and exports
TARGET env var.

This allows for overriding the base directory where build directories
are created, as well as the specific build directory (RCG_BUILDD).

Changing the defaults for shmem_input/size to good defaults so they do not need to be mentioned in the daqdrc.

Will allow daqd binary to set real-time nice priority

Increasing the default stack size and adding in comments.

This also removed a number of un-needed entries.

add /etc/advligorts/systemd_env to rts-awgtpman@.service.  Awgtpman now needs IFO and SITE variables to find model rate.

closes #103

The awgtpman process is run as root only because it wants to bind to a
privileged port.  This is not necessary as capabilities exist to allow
running it as a unprivileged user:

* remove an unnecessary check in the awgtpman binary on the superuser
  status of the user

* set CAP_NET_BIND_SERVICE in the systemd service to allow it to bind
  to privileged port

This should allow the service to run as a non-privileged user, which we
set here to be advligorts.

closes #93

This should make sure that all files created by these commands (e.g. in
/opt/rtcds/...) are created group writable permission.

closes #90

This wraps the sourcing of the /etc/advligorts/env file in the 'allexport'
shell option that explicitly marks all variables for export.  Hopefully
this will eliminate the need to explicitly export variables (address #92).

awgtpman depends on the module being loaded, so a Wants seems like the
appropriate strength.
