This fixes the case where oneshot was enabled with multi-instance pwm_out,
triggering oneshot updates too close to each other and as a result could
lead to spinning motors while disarmed.
- no longer start sercon or mavlink usb by default
- on USB connection (VBUS) monitor serial USB at low rate and start Mavlink if there's a HEARTBEAT or nshterm on 3 consecutive carriage returns
- the mavlink USB instance is automatically stopped and serdis executed if USB is disconnected
- skipping Mavlink USB (and sercon) saves a considerable amount of memory on older boards
Add common functions, implemented for nuttx, and link to architecture specific libraries
Make a separate library to wrap nuttx random number generator as "os_random".

Using mixers on the IO side had a remote benefit of being able to
override all control surfaces with a radio remote on a fixed wing.
This ended up not being used that much and since the original design
10 years ago (2011) we have been able to convince ourselves that the
overall system stability is at a level where this marginal benefit,
which is not present on multicopters, is not worth the hazzle.

This is to avoid potential race conditions during startup.
All startup code runs sequentially atm, so this is just for robustness
for later (e.g. concurrent pwm_out and dshot start).
This allows modules to do a first-come-first-serve pin/timer reservation
on bootup.
E.g. camera trigger reserves any of the pins, and then PWM/DShot output
will just use the rest of the available pins.
When the last WorkItem is deleted, it is removed from a work queue and the
queue is being stopped. But, the queue itself might get deleted in the middle,
in a higher priority thread than where the WorkItem deletion was performed from
If the WorkQueue::Detach accesses the member variables after this, there is memory
corruption
This happens in particular when launching i2c or spi devices in
I2CSPIDriverBase::module_start:
- The "initializer" is deleted when the instance is not found and the iterator
while loop continues.
- The workqueue is deleted in the middle of "initializer" deletion when the
WorkQueueRunner returns.
This prevents deletion of the WorkQueue before the Detach has been finished,
in the specific case that the ::Detach triggers the deletion
