f9bece2ffb Update LiveWindow to provide continuous telemetry. (#771)
LiveWindow.updateValues() is now called from IterativeRobotBase on every
loop iteration.  Telemetry for all WPILib classes is enabled by default;
it can be disabled for specific classes using LiveWindow.disableTelemetry(),
or all telemetry can be disabled using LiveWindow.disableAllTelemetry().

This necessitated changing the hook methodology into other classes to
be more property-based rather than each class providing multiple functions.
This had the benefit of reducing boilerplate and increasing consistency.

- Remove NamedSendable, add name to Sendable.

- Provide SendableBase abstract class.

- Deprecate LiveWindow addSensor/addActuator interfaces.

- Add LiveWindow support to drive classes.

- Add addChild() helper functions to Subsystem.

- Fix inheritance hierarchy.  Now only sensors inherit from SensorBase.
  Other devices inherit from some combination of SendableBase, ErrorBase, or
  nothing.

19addb04cf Split RobotDrive class into a class for each drive type (#552)
DiffDrive.CurvatureDrive (aka CheesyDrive) and KilloughDrive were also added.
This reorganization paves the way for SwerveDrive.
