The Soft Channel device support requests pass-1 initialization.
It no longer needs to initialize the INP link or allocate the
array buffer itself, these are taken care of elsewhere.
The record code uses PACT to remember that the device must be
initialized again in pass 1.
Allowing this while expanding DBD files for IOCs can insert other
device supports before of the Base "Soft Channel" ones, making the
other type the default. Adds a note that DBD file order matters.
Fixes lp: #1908305
This fixes github issue #97:
Reading into an aai record from a compress or histogram or subArray record
could cause a segfault if the aai record was initialized before the
linked one.
The old code is preserved in osdNetIfConf.c, which is used by the default
platform directory.
Platforms that support getifaddrs use the new code from osdNetIfAddrs.c.
