It supports the new "fakedev" simulation mode which runs SICS with real
drivers for devices which have simulated controllers.
There are advance options which allow multiple instances of SICS to be
launched on development and test environments.
Also we no longer depend on having serverport numbers in /etc/services.

Set the current to the target value when we're within one step rather than within tolerance to avoid undershooting the target.
Do not try and get the state when initialising the driver because it will fail to create the driver properly if the RF generator is unavailable on SICS startup. The current is zero when the RF gen is power cycled so it is safe to set the current reading and target current as zero in initialisation so we just set the operating frequency and everything else is left at zero.

Implements a protocol handler for the protek 608 multimeters which just allows us to read the display.
It reports all elements of the display including the bar graph, it does not provide remote control of the multimeter. The protocol handler broadcasts a warning to all clients if the auto-off function is enabled.
sct_rfamp.c
This is a protocol handler for the Mirrortron 35V 7A AC Generator (ANSFR-83B).
sinqhttpprot.c
Copied the PSI script context http protocol handler.
sct_orhvpsprot.c
Ordela high voltage power supply protocol handler now catches unknown commands.
sct_eurotherm_2000.tcl

Adds new "histmem clockscale" subcommand to get and set the clock scale from the fat_clock_scale FAT parameter.
You can now upload the FAT FRAME_BUFFER and FRAME_DUTYCYCLE parameters to the histogram memory.
The veto commands are now "histmem veto on" and "histmem veto off".
hmm_object.tcl
The axis order for the histmem object has been restore to t,y,x
sct_positmotor_common.tcl
Code has been simplified.
nxscripts_common_1.tcl
Removed obsolete ::nexus::data function. TOF axis now correctly report time_of_flight instead of "time".
plc_common_1.tcl
Make PLC info saveable.
scan_common_1.tcl
SICS-385 The scan command should check the final scan variable value against he soft upper and lower limits, not against the hard limits.
Make sure that the scan variable axis is saved.
platypus, kowari, quokka hmm_configuration.tcl
Use the HOR and VER entries in the new histmem_axes hash to select the horizontal and vertical axes for the histmem.

site_ansto.c
Added the following protocols, Httpl, Protek608, aand RFAmp.
scriptcontext.c
SICS-386 SctActionHandler: set "send" string to NULL when a chain of scripts completes with state=idle.
It turns out that if none of the scripts in the "read chain" call [sct send] each time the chain is executed, then SICS will hammer the device with calls to AsconWrite(). This can be avoided if SctActionHandler sets the 'send' string to NULL before "goto finish" in the idle state. This will be safer and still let you have chains with multiple [sct send] and read scripts.
asyncprotocol.c
Fix platypus memory leak.
devser.c
SICS-387 Started adding code to pass signals on to script context drivers.
ascon.c
AsconTask(): Make sure we return to the AsconIdle state when sending a command which expect no response, also only reconnect if there is a Timeout when there has been an error.

Histmem now only calls TaskYield after SICS has finished initalising, this stops the statusfile task from being called early and overwriting the status file. Created ANSTO_MakeHistMemory command to install ANSTO_HistAction
Added veto functions. Mapped the HistDriver interface Pause() and Continue() commands to AnstoHttpVeto and AnstoHttpNoVeto. Implemented an ANSTO_Histaction to call AnstoHttpPause when sent a "pause" subcommand.
