This is an alternative to #2344 that handles arbitrary order derivatives
of arbitrary precision. The downside is that since it's part of
LinearFilter, it can't utilize the units type system in the same way to
make Calculate()'s input type different from its output type.
The HAL Notifier thread is started when the first Notifier is created
and stopped when the last Notifier is destroyed. Currently,
HAL_SetNotifierThreadPriority() will cause a segfault if the Notifier thread
hasn't been started yet (that is, if no Notifier have been created yet).
This change makes HAL_SetNotifierThreadPriority() store the RT and
priority setting. If the thread has already been started, it will set
the priority immediately. If it hasn't, HAL_InitializeNotifier() will
set the priority when it starts the thread.
This PR gives the Notifier HAL thread RT priority 40 in RobotBase after
HAL initialization and before the user code is run. This drastically
improves scheduling jitter for TimedRobot's AddPeriodic() functions (in
3512's experience).
It's too risky to set user code as RT because badly behaved code
will lock up the Rio (potentially requiring safe mode to recover).
This needs the user program to be setuid admin to succeed.
- GenericHID is now concrete, and has only getRawAxis/Button(int) functionality
- getXxx() has been moved into Joystick as that's the only place where it makes sense
- Hand (and therefore getXxx(Hand)) has been removed, replaced by specific getLeft/RightXxx() methods in XboxController and the new PS4Controller class
- C++ ::Button:: and ::Axis:: enums have been converted to identically-namespaced static constexpr ints
This saves time in CI spent performing the same source-level checks in
every build job. Checkstyle, PMD, and Spotless are now run once in the
"Lint and Format" job.
The -PskipPMD flag was replaced with a -PskipJavaFormat flag that
disables Checkstyle, PMD, and Spotless.
They don't provide much utility for the end user. A print at the call to
HAL_ObserveUserProgramStarting() was added in their place so it's still
clear when constructors have finished running.
Currently, we have functions like TeleopInit() for running code on mode
entry, but no such functions for running code on mode exit, and it's
cumbersome to add those in user code without making a custom robot
class. This PR adds exit functions to TimedRobot.
Some example use cases include DisabledExit() for operations when the
robot enables (whether that be into teleop, autonomous, or test) and
AutonomousExit() for disabling feedback controllers.
This is a basic C++ example that demonstrates a simple differential drive implementation using “tank”-style controls through the DifferentialDrive class and an ordinary joystick.

Our patches for the DARE and [[noreturn]] attributes were merged
upstream. We missed their monthly release window by a day, so we'll use
a commit hash for now.
The current 2021.3.1 release refers to `java/lang/IOException` which causes the following exception when using `toPathweaverJson` or `fromPathweaverJson`:
```
java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: java/lang/IOException
at edu.wpi.first.math.WPIMathJNI.fromPathweaverJson(Native Method)
at edu.wpi.first.wpilibj.trajectory.TrajectoryUtil.fromPathweaverJson(TrajectoryUtil.java:79)
```
Also refactored RKF45 implementation to match the new style, which is
easier to read.
The tests were switched from RKF45 to RKDP since it's more accurate.
