Andrew Johnson 77192b3228 libCom: Reworked the epicsEvent APIs
* Renamed the enum epicsEventWaitStatus to epicsEventStatus
* Defined epicsEventWaitStatus as a macro for epicsEventStatus
* Renamed epicsEventWaitOk to epicsEventOk
* Renamed epicsEventWaitError to epicsEventError
* Defined epicsEventWaitOK and epicsEventWaitError as macros
* Added epicsEventTrigger(id) which triggers an event and returns OK or an
    error status if the underlying OS primitives report an error
* Added epicsEventMustTrigger(id) which halts on error
* Defined epicsEventSignal(id) as a macro for epicsEventMustTrigger(id)
* Added a new C++ method epicsEvent::trigger() which throws an
    epicsEvent::invalidSemaphore in the event of an error
* epicsEvent::signal() makes an inline call to epicsEvent::trigger()
* epicsEventWait() and epicsEventWaitWithTimeout() now return an error
    status if the underlying OS primitives report an error
* All the epicsEventMust...() routines are now implemented in the common
    libCom/osi/epicsEvent.cpp source file, and call cantProceed() instead of
    mis-using assert()
* Implemented epicsEventShow() on Posix

The CPU030 may need to have the nivxi path set correctly:
	From the vxWorks shell type "vxitedit" (you may need to
	loading the NI vxitedit package first)
	take option 2
	take option 3
	type list
	type modify 0
		type in the correct path when promped
		(the path should end in nivxi 
		and should traverse the niCpu030
		directories shipped with the 030
		ie something of the form "???/config/niCPU030/nivxi"
	type save
	type exit
	.
	.
	.

	see "Getting Started with Your VXIcpu-030" from NI

You may may need to setup front panel to backplane trigger
routing:

To take a TTL input and map it to VXI backplane ECL trigger 0
type in (to the vxWorks shell):

epvxiRouteTriggerECL(<logical address>, 1, 0)

where <logical address> specifies the card with the 
front panel trigger connection.
