New driver for Bruker BIS (Bruker Instrument Service) detectors. There was a preliminary
version of this driver in the apex2Src directory in R1-6. It is now fully functional.

New driver for Photonic Sciences Ltd. (PSL) detectors. This driver currently can
do everything except read the data back from the detector. That capability needs
to be added, which requires access to a PSL detector for development and testing.

Added support for opening cameras by IP address or IP DNS name, in addition to
UniqueID. This allows communicating with cameras that are not on the local subnet.
The change is backwards compatible with existing iocsh startup scripts.

Removed support for writing TIFF files using the driver library. This was a problem

the new version used by GraphicsMagick. The driver TIFF writer had no advantage

New file writing plugin, NDFileMagick. This uses GraphicsMagick to write files,

NDPluginColorConvert. Added support for false color when converting 8-bit mono
to RGB1, RGB2, or RGB3. Thanks to Tom Cobb for this addition.
NDPluginStats. Removed duplicate record for MeanValue_RBV from NDStats.template.
