The current feed forward calculation is only useful for velocity PID controllers where F, the feed forward constant, is 1 over the maximum setpoint for the output. For motion profiles which use position PID controllers, the appropriate calculation for velocity and acceleration feed forwards is different. This change allows the user to provide their own feed forward implementation without having to rewrite the entire Calculate() function.
Both default feed forward calculations are velocity feed forwards. Suggestions for sensible feed forward constants are included in the inline comments.

Years update, references to WIND_BASE were removed, and WPILib license was
moved to the root directory of the project.
If there was already a comment block, a year range through 2016 was created
using the first year in the comment. If there was no comment block, a block
with just the year 2016 was added.
Comments were not added to files from external sources (NI, CTRE).

Also remove m_mutex. It's no longer necessary because we ensure the automatic
thread is stopped while the set is being accessed.

it's not directly required to link at this time, and if you want to use a different
version of protobuf on the end-user's computer then linking their robot programs
will fail

URL for simulation zip changed as of gerrit 1264
script argument name changed from INSTALLER to INSTALL
fixed jar and logo paths for sim_ds
to use the script, it's now simply:
./frcsim-installer.sh INSTALL
You can optionally supply a promotion status from which to install, such as
./frcsim-installer.sh INSTALL beta
./frcsim-installer.sh INSTALL development
Also added some information to the README
Also allow any type of file install-resources since it may contain
libraries and jars

This turns accidental parameter mismatches between header and implementation
into compiler errors.

This allows both greater than 72 minute (2^32 * 1 us) timeouts and also
gracefully handles notifiers across the FPGA time counter rollover.

WaitResult gets returned from C++ and the JNI, so should probably be returned
in Java as well.
Adds WaitResult tests to Java AbstractInterruptTest

Also provide templated varags constructor for backwards compatibility and
ease of use.
Update PIDController to use new constructor, eliminating static function
CallCalculate().

This removes redundant queue code from the C++ library.
The old queue code is still needed by simulation, and as the delta between
the simulation and athena headers has grown significantly, this splits the
header into two separate files.

Notifier takes advantage of the multi-notifier support now in HAL.
Each Notifier is now handled by a separate thread at the JNI level, so
one notifier taking longer to process (or being breakpointed) does not
stop the other notifiers from running. These threads are configured as
daemon threads.
In both Notifier and Interrupt JNI, the JNI thread attachment no longer
repeatedly calls AttachCurrentThread(). This improves performance but more
importantly avoids impacting the Eclipse debugger, which attempts to
track each call to AttachCurrentThread() as a separate Java thread.
Note: There is currently no way to free an interrupt handler. Repeatedly
calling attachInterruptHandler() will result in leaking previous handlers.

adds build of gz_msgs on end-user computer
This means we don't need to provide different zips for different
versions of ubuntu.
The problem was that gazebo on 14.04 comes with protobuf 2.5 but gazebo on 15.10 comes with 2.6
added a few other fixes to the install script as well
also fix dependency between simluation publishing and libwpilibcsim
building

To publish the simulation zip, run ./gradlew publish -PmakeSim
Targeting Ubuntu 14.04 and 15.10 for now, with 14.04 being the
currently best supported.
Two scripts have been drafted for installing, for 14.04 and 15.10
It currently publishes to ~/releases/maven/development/simulation
There is a known bug that gz_msgs for 15.10 must be built using
protobuf 2.6, which is not the default on 14.04.
