* Use pwrCheck() as primary control point for shutdown, centralizes thread control in simpgmspace module;
* Remove main_thread_running in favor of separate variables for startup mode and shutdown flag;
* Don't start a thread for ARM startup, just run simuMain() directly (the thread just exits anyway);

* Add startType param to opentxStart() to control splash and startup checks;
* Fixes backlight never turning off in simulator with "SWITCH" power button type (pwrPressed() was always true);
* Fixes simu shutdown when model checklist is displayed at startup;
* Adds stubs to possibly simulate a "soft" power button in the future.
* Crossfire baudrate selection for X7 support ( fixes#4922 )
* Moved baurate selection to general settings

translation added
* typo fixed
* [Simulator] Create RadioKeyWidget class for UI buttons & refactor ButtonsWidget; Refactor SimulatedUIWidget (and subtypes) to use new RadioKeyWidgets/ButtonsWidget; Centralize help text for key mappings and get creative with some icons; Simplify some radio UI setups with rectangular buttons.
* [Simulator] Convert all simulator data I/O to signals/slots mechanism:
* SimulatorInterface/OpenTxSimulator:
- Now inherits from QObject to allow signal/slot interface;
- Allows data exchange on a per-item basis (eg. each I/O value is treated separately instead of sending whole arrays or structs of data);
- Checks for data changes and only emits signals when change is detected (GUI can now assume only new values are being sent);
- Manages its own 10ms timer (doesn't rely on GUI to do that);
- Sends "heartbeat" signals @ 1Hz for status monitoring;
* Simulator GUI:
- All data is exchanged between GUI elements as well as SimulatorInterface via signals/slots using standardized methods;
- Data is sent immediately, and only, when actually changed (eg. a control is moved) instead of in bulk at specific time intervals;
- Similarly, an asynchronous method is used for reading incoming data, w/out timers or loops;
- Improve VirtualJoystickWidget to be more encapsulated and configurable;
- Pause telemetry simulator if window is hidden;
* [Simulator] Move SimulatorInterface instance to separate thread, ensure safe asynchronous operations & proper timer interactions; Protect/remove some functions, & reorganize the order (cosmetics).
* [Simulator] Traces are now delivered to OpenTxSimulator and one or more QIODevice(s) can be added as recipient(s); Add SimulatorInterface::getCapability() for compile-time settings; Remove reversed POT1/SLIDER1 mixer exception (Taranis) requirement for SIMU; Fix plus/minus key delay on wheel event w/out encoder.
* [Simulator] Add current knob/slider/trim input value in tool-tips (KnobWidget and SliderWidget).
* [Simulator] Fix trims widget internal value not properly updating, and remove trim influence on virtual joystick X/Y value display (closes#4671).
* [SimulatorInterface] Add handling of transmitter input voltage, including a rough conversion of volts to ADC value for different boards, and default battery volts lookup function; Clear analogs array before starting.
* [Simulator] Add SimulatorInterface::init() method to separate pre-startup tasks; Report actual trim range, not just extended on/off; Change how radio widget states are restored; VirtualJoystickWidget: Connect trim changes directly from simulator, connect joystick events directly, report stick mode directly instead of setting values/constraints externally.
* [Simulator] Calculate default Tx V input based on configured range in radio settings (or warning V+2 for radios which don't support a range).
* [Simulator] Add functional aux. trims for Horus (closes#4699).
* [Companion] Remove problematic QMessageLogContext from AppDebugMessageHandler::messageOutput().

* [Companion] Display calibration data for Horus joysticks (MOUSE1/MOUSE2)
* [simpgmspace] Fix 2MHz and 16KHz timers on MSVC builds (fixes LCD/key/switch response delay on all AVR simulators); Introduce experimental use of Qt to simplify x-platform code (disabled by default).
* Qt timer scaling fix.
* [simulation] Hardening: Fix some potential crashes & 26 memory leaks, improve LCD performance.
* [simpgmspace] Init trims; Make sure `REa` is really defined (to match board files).
* [simpgmspace][opentxsimulator] Verify current running state before start/stop; Move rotary enc. init.
* [simpgmspace][LcdWidget] Improve performance by moving LCD content change check to lcdRefresh() & limiting LcdWidget refresh time to 60 fps max.
* [simueeprom] Ensure thread could be started, set default running state to false.
* [simufatfs] Fix paths report trace.
* [eepromimportexport] Fix memory leaks resulting from import debugging scheme being used.

* [simulatorwidget] Delete removed spacer object (previously-forgotten "26th" leak).
* [DebugOutput] Fix stray trailing characters issue with new text buffer allocation (from previous commit); Increase maximum buffer sizes to better accommodate slower systems.
* Cosmetics.
* [Simulator] Increase resolution of CoGetOSTime() on Windows MSVC (possible fix for #4529, ref. #4342).
* Return total time, not delta time.
* Improve efficiency.
* Re #4224: Introduced settingsPath and use std::string for paths in simpgmspace.
* Re #4224: Relevant parts of simpgmspace.cpp moved into simufatfs.cpp and simudisk.cpp
* Removed "/" from "mask_monitor_logsw.png"
* Re #4224: findTrueFileName() refactoring
* Faster gtests (less waiting for eeprom operations to finish)
* Re #4224: Radio settings and models directories now taken from alternate path (if set) [simu]
* Fixes#3322: together with previous changes to the SD browser this prevents the simulator from browsing higher than SD card root path.
* f_chdir() debug traces
* [Windows][MinGW] Update some WIN32 macro checks in source code to be MSVC-specific (not needed for GCC-based builds).
* [build] CMakeLists updates:
Adjust for Windows MinGW builds: now fully compatible with Qt5.5+ and MinGW-w64 toolchain (included in Qt installs);
Add option to specify path to required libraries/includes (instead of hard-coding `c:\programs`);
Add package check for Python and use found executable name;
Remove custom FindSdl package handler in favor of stock (and improved) CMake one (still works with Windows);
Do not force SIMU_AUDIO and LUA_COMPILER in SIMU builds (leave it up to user);
Add SIMU_LUA_COMPILER option specifically for SIMU builds (default = ON);
* [build][Windows] Rewrite/Fix Windows Companion `install` target, with two options:
a) just copy supporting Qt and c++ DLLs to build folder so programs can be quickly be run from there (this is default and similar to the old behavior);
b) full installation to CMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX path, including all binaries, supporting DLLs, language files, and OTx utilities.
Option b) can be selected with new WIN_DO_FULL_INSTALL parameter;
Also cleans up the Linux install a bit and consolidates the OS X parts;
* [simulator][Windows] Add option to build Windows simulator with system console/terminal enabled (both standalone and when launched from Companion). Mostly useful for debug as it gives output messages much sooner in the startup process than the current debug console. Also helpful because you don't have to open it manually on every launch, and it remembers last window position and size. Possible candidate for a user-selectable runtime option in the future.
* [Windows] Fix MSVC build issues.
* [build] More build fixes:
Use a customized FindSDL.cmake script again due to bugs and deficiencies in the official version (based on script from CMake v3.7);
Fixes missing SDL DLL error in NSIS installer);
Use string for Timers option (checkbox in GUI is confusing);
Remove an unused variable.
* [simu][Windows] Fix f_getcwd() cutting off too many characters (fixes SD browser interactions).
