This is increasingly difficult to maintain, and has very limited
benefit. Modern coprocessors with enough horsepower to run Java
applications can use the Gradle or Bazel build systems instead.
This lets us remove the unmaintained StackWalker library and its hacky
upstream_utils script.

Jackson is a very heavy library; it supports loads of features that we
don't need, and historically has caused issues due to long class loading
times (a little over 2 seconds to load AprilTagFieldLayout). This often
manifests as a help request in the form of "my robot disables when I do
X, but doesn't disable when doing X in subsequent attempts until code
restart." While SC has brought down Jackson loading times significantly,
with AprilTagFieldLayout loads taking only 330 milliseconds, that's
still a rather long delay, and while libraries should handle any JSON
loading ahead of time to prevent delays in auto/teleop, it would still
be good to make the worst case better to reduce user frustration.
Benchmarks indicate using [Avaje
Jsonb](https://github.com/avaje/avaje-jsonb) to load AprilTagFieldLayout
only takes ~70 ms, a fair chunk of which isn't actually in Avaje Jsonb
(~4 ms is spent on using getResourceAsStream to retrieve the JSON file,
~8 ms is spent on just loading the AprilTag class and its dependencies).
Note that all times listed are end-to-end, meaning nothing else was done
except for the operation being benchmarked, and doing arithmetic on them
can be flawed due to some classes being loaded twice, i.e.,
getResourceAsStream and `new AprilTag()` likely load some of the same
JDK classes and so subtracting both from the Avaje Jsonb load time is
likely slightly incorrect because class loading is being double counted.
For our purposes, it's likely accurate enough and is mostly just for
contextualization.
Benchmarks were run on a Raspberry Pi CM5 with 2 GB of RAM. Source code
for the
[results](https://github.com/user-attachments/files/26471452/benchmark.txt)
can be found in the "Fastjson2" commit
(2456d15ca8ebd17635e607cd40bf8816e77869a1).
Avaje Jsonb uses code generation via annotation processors to generate
the classes needed to do JSON serde and uses service providers to find
them, which will require downstream changes in robot projects, as the
different service providers in each library must be merged together for
Avaje Jsonb to function. We will use the Gradle shadow plugin, as its
already used by the installer and therefore adds zero additional
dependencies.
The wrapper includes reverse mode autodiff, the Problem DSL, and the
optimal control problem API. I wrote it by directly translating the
upstream
[API](https://github.com/SleipnirGroup/Sleipnir/tree/main/include/sleipnir)
and [tests](https://github.com/SleipnirGroup/Sleipnir/tree/main/test) to
Java (i.e., copy-paste-modify).
I replaced the ArmFeedforward and Ellipse2d JNIs with implementations
using the Sleipnir Java bindings. Switching dev binary JNIs to release
by default sped up wpimath test runs from several minutes to 7 seconds.
* Moved makeWhiteNoiseVector() to random.Normal.normal()
* Moved isControllable() and isDetectable() to system.LinearSystemUtil
* Renamed makeCostMatrix() to costMatrix() (Java)
* Renamed makeCovarianceMatrix() to covarianceMatrix() (Java)
* Renamed MakeCostMatrix() to CostMatrix() (C++)
* Renamed MakeCovMatrix() to CovarianceMatrix() (C++)
* Removed deprecated poseTo3dVector(), poseTo4dVector(), poseToVector()
* Removed clampInputMaxMagnitude()
* We don't use it, and Eigen has this functionality built in via `u =
u.array().min(u_max.array()).max(u_min.array());`
* Simplified implementation of desaturateInputVector()
The Google C++ protobuf implementation has issues with dynamic linkage across DLL boundaries because it uses global variables. It also has a compile-time dependency because the protoc version must exactly match the libprotobuf version. Using nanopb with a customized generator fixes both of these issues.

The hacks we needed to do to get the existing commands required cmake 3.28. We didn't want that, so just make a local slimmed down copy of the function just for our use. Even better, its much simpler in what it does, no weird hacks.
Reading exported data from shared objects on windows is broken. It requires __declspec(dllimport). However, this is problematic, as we use the same static libraries both from a shared and static context. So we can't just blindly apply dllimport.
The linker should have caught this, as data members are exported in a different way. However, due to a bug in native-utils, data member symbols were exposed directly. However, interacting with those data member was completely broken.
The only way we can really solve this is to just not use static data members. We're pretty good about this in WPILib itself. However, protobuf is absolutely terrible at this. There are a ton of inline functions that access global data. For the protobuf library itself, we can solve this easily enough.
However, for the generated protobuf code, this is much more problematic. The member needed to bypass the global data is private. This means using just the stock protobuf code, this problem is not solvable. But, protobuf generated code has insertion points. Those insertion points let us add our own code into the generated code via a protoc plugin. And it just so happens that an insertion point exists to add extra public methodsto the generated protobuf header. There is also an insertion point to let us add to the cpp file.
The methods we need are the getters, for unpacking protobufs. For any protobuf that has a message as a member, we generate a new wpi_x() getter (the existing one is just x(), where x is the field name). We then implement this in the cpp file. A trick we can use is in the cpp file, we can safely call the x() function, as the cpp file is in the same library as the global. Thus we can call that inline method, and not actually need to directly access any internal private state of the protobuf object.
TL;DR, all protobuf classes that have messages as fields now have a wpi_x() accessor that must be used instead of x() if you want the code to work on windows. After wpilibsuite/native-utils#212, the bad code will fail to link, rather then just fail at runtime.

This removes a build dependency on the quickbuf generator being available for the build platform.
It's safe to generate Java because the quickbuf version is defined by the project.
C++ protobufs can't be committed because the protoc version must
match the library version (this is a particular issue for cmake builds).
To reduce the need for users to manually perform unit conversions, this allows Measure objects from wpiunits to be passed into most places in wpimath that currently expect doubles in terms of SI units like meters.
For example, users would need to know that unit conversion is required - and what the correct units are. Using units would be more difficult to write code for than just hardcoding a value or using Units.inchesToMeters.
Now, using units has no more developer overhead than using raw numbers.
This adds support for two serialization formats for complex data types:
- Protobuf for complex objects with variable length internals that need forward and backward wire compatibility (lower speed, more flexible)
- Raw struct (ByteBuffer-style) for fixed-length objects (higher speed, less flexible)
Deserialization can be done either by creating a new object (for immutable objects) or overwriting the contents of an existing object (for mutable objects).
Implementing classes should provide inner classes that implement the Protobuf or Struct interface (in Java) or specialize the wpi::Protobuf or wpi::Struct struct (in C++). It is possible for classes to implement both. If the class itself does not implement serialization, it's possible for third parties/users to provide an implementation instead.
Uses the Google protobuf implementation for C++ and the QuickBuffers alternative protobuf implementation for Java.
CMake's file(DOWNLOAD) function fails silently, leading to an error occurring due to a missing file later in the build. This fails quickly and produces a better error message.
FetchContent requires CMake 3.11 (released Mar 28, 2018).
Fixed this warning:
```
CMake Warning (dev) at /usr/share/cmake/Modules/FetchContent.cmake:1316 (message):
The DOWNLOAD_EXTRACT_TIMESTAMP option was not given and policy CMP0135 is
not set. The policy's OLD behavior will be used. When using a URL
download, the timestamps of extracted files should preferably be that of
the time of extraction, otherwise code that depends on the extracted
contents might not be rebuilt if the URL changes. The OLD behavior
preserves the timestamps from the archive instead, but this is usually not
what you want. Update your project to the NEW behavior or specify the
DOWNLOAD_EXTRACT_TIMESTAMP option with a value of true to avoid this
robustness issue.
