Now rgb() and color constants are supported.
Changed from constructor to fromString() factory function to enable
directly returning color constant values.
Support joystick outputs, including Rumble and LEDs.
Also requires an update to Joystick descriptors, as that has also
changed in mrccomm to support showing what outputs are supported.
Instead of just having a max count for joystick values, there's an available mask of values. This is because in the future we're expecting there to be holes in the list of available buttons and axes. This updates everything to support that scenario.
Also, Joystick buttons, axes, and POVs all now start at 0 instead of 1.
SystemCore doesn't directly support Servos. It would be possible to still use a Servo Power Module, but those are fairly rare, and we should probably use a different class for that case, so users don't attempt to hook a servo directly up to systemcore. That will depend on what happens with the rules in 2027.
Rev Servo Hubs are a current working replacement for systemcore users.
* Move units into API docs instead because suffixes make user code verbose and hard to read
* Rename trackWidth to trackwidth
* Make ultrasonic classes use meters instead of a mix of m, cm, mm, ft,
and inches
Was causing bugs when combined with patterns that need to read back from the buffer (eg masks and overlays)

This refactors Alert in both c++ and java to fix the issues with the current c++ implementation and improve performance.
Currently, constructing an Alert adds it to a list of Alerts with the same group and type. Activating an alert sets a flag on the alert. When the SendableAlerts is polled (GetStrings), the entire list is iterated over, filtered, and the filtered list is sorted by timestamp. This leads to a worst case O(m + nlog(n)) time complexity for GetStrings, where m and n are the count of total constructed alerts active alerts respectively. It also allocates intermediate data structures to hold the active alert strings for sorting.
This changes the implementation to improve the performance of GetStrings, by shifting the sorting overhead to Alert.Set
Constructing the Alert only initializes the alert's initial state, and initializes the SendableAlerts for the group if it is not already initialized.
Activating or deactivating an alert sets an internal flag for state tracking, and inserts or removes a structure containing the timestamp and text into a self-sorting data structure (std::set, TreeSet) containing other active alerts with the same group and type. (worst case O(log(n))
Now, SendableAlerts.GetStrings only has to iterate over the structure and copy the strings to the returned array. (amortized O(n))
This also fixes the c++ implementation by removing the need for SendableAlerts to directly access the Alert.
This also adds a helper method to SendableRegistry to force initialization of the instance to prevent static initialization ordering issues.
If the interrupt edge tests are running while under heavy CPU load (like building wpilib) they are prone to failure since the interrupt thread doesn't have enough time to set up callbacks. The interrupt edge tests now copy the original AsynchronousInterrupt test, which has a 0.5s delay after the interrupt is enabled. Running the new interrupt tests while building allwpilib causes far less failures than the old tests.
