rtcds: added orthagonal commandline flags for choosing kernel or user space model building.  Default is user space, but can be changed by setting USE_KERNEL_MODELS to true.

- Alarm point for reading first ADC increased from 20 to 23usec, as in V3.4 release
- Diag fix for DAC modules when running without LIGO timing system.

Closes #143, Add more epics variables to the edc.

Closes #143

See merge request cds/advligorts!152

Adds in 3 new epics variables to the edc.  If selected in the edc ini file they are always available.

 * prefix UPTIME_SECONDS
 * prefix DATA_RATE_KB_PER_S
 * prefix GPS

Their data is also exported in the json debug dump as the following fields:

 * Uptime
 * DataRateKbPerSec
 * Gpstime

Closes #158, make mbuf conditionally verbose.

Closes #158

See merge request cds/advligorts!149

Expose a new sysfs endpoint, kernel/mbuf/verbosity.  This contains an
integer value which defaults to 0.  When set to non-zero the mbuf driver
is put into verbose mode and outputs debug information on each connection
and command.  If regular (non-verbose) it is silent.

Errors in allocation and issues on startup still always issue printk calls.

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

 * Properly record the expected crc config value
 * Do some output on the first cycle so that we know the test is progressing.

 Bring in a fix to the daq_wiper

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.

and this is the dac module ordering fix.

- updated rcg release to 4.0.1

- Add allBiquad to feCodeGen.pl to fix biquad compile.

to same changes in map.c and mapApp.c after card search pattern was
changed to allow DAC models to appear in any order on the bus.

without an I/O chassis.  Not yet completed.

and time not yet being transmitted.

	- Switched module mapping search pattern in map.c mapApp.c.
	- Added card number info into mapping:
		- Change to ADC/DAC drivers
		- Change to cdsHardware structure
Fix for BIO count on user model STAT screen.
	- Send info after BURT to avoid race condition.
Fix for adding N as site/ifo designator for ANU.
