when a library called read() it would clear the new input flag, which
would cause new_input() in the main loop to return false. This could
trigger a false RC failsafe.
When PWM_Sysfs_Base constructor is called, global variable hal may not
have been initialized resulting in NULL dereferencing error.
Move hal dependent stuff from contructor to init method.
By opening with O_CLOEXEC we make sure we don't leak the file descriptor
when we are exec'ing or calling out subprograms. Right now we currently
don't do it so there's no harm, but it's good practice in Linux to have
it.
Several return values in the constructor of the scheduler were ignored
before, while they should be respected.
I found that bug while strac'ing ardupilot as it failed at some later
point.

This allows to terminate the flight stack nicely, ensuring it returns 0
so init system can check by return code if it terminated nicely or if it
was due to a crash.
This allows to wakeup the thread that is sleeping on Poller::poll()
[ which in our case is an epoll_wait() call ]. This is usually achieved
by using a special signal and using the pwait() variant of the sleeping
function (or using signalfd). However integrating the signal in the
Thread class is more complex than simply use the eventfd syscall which
can serve our needs.
Up until now we rely on Thread objects and variants thereof to be allocated
on heap or embedded in another object that's zero'ed on initialization.
However sometimes it's convenient to be able to use them on stack as
will be the case when writting unit tests.
Initialize all relevant fields to allow them to be used on stack. While
at it, prefer C++11 initialization on Poller since it's only setting the
default (invalid) value.

This patch replaces the 'old style' ringbuffer by the ByteBuffer class.
An effort was made to keep the exchange as close as possible from a
drop-in replacement to minimize the risk of introducing bugs.
Although the exchange opens opportunities for improvement and
simplification of this class.
When the buffer wraps and we do it in 2 steps, we can't actually do the
second part if it fails or if we wrote less bytes than we intended,
otherwise we will corrupt the data being sent.

The constant passed to cflag is BOTHER, meaning the actual baud is set
in the other specific members. Don't define B* constants as they are
misleading here and this is why it doesn't work with e.g.
cfset[io]speed()... that function expect a B* constant which in Linux
is not the speed, but an index to an array with speeds.
Accidentally pushed in commit 298f7bffb9
The order of the motors shouldn't have been changed on version 5 because
it is specific to older versions of the ESC controller firmware
