This is 6 of 9 in a series of PRs refactoring the hw_device_mgr to run outside ROS, handle file resources more intelligently, manage PDO configurations, improve abstraction, improve CiA402 homing, simplify initialization, fix a state_cmd race condition, and other fixes and improvements.

This PR is based on & should be merged after #18 .
This is 5 of 9 in a series of PRs refactoring the hw_device_mgr to run outside ROS, handle file resources more intelligently, manage PDO configurations, improve abstraction, improve CiA402 homing, simplify initialization, fix a state_cmd race condition, and other fixes and improvements.

This PR is based on & should be merged after #17 .

This sixth PR adds Inovance drive error data and fixes tests.

Fix test_dot test.  External projects may have mgr classes without a
separate category, i.e. in the `all` class, which causes collisions.
I'm not sury why this was ever this way in the first place.

Other changes for cleanliness only; nothing fixed:
- Remove redundant piece of conditional
- Improve assertion exception messages
...and `update()` that interface from `get_feedback()`.

This fixes issues with the manager class.  It also shows that for a
more intuitive interface, interfaces should be reset from a `reset()`
method in the base `read()`, and `update()` renamed to `set()`.
When dumping drive params, uploading some objects is expected to fail;
suppressing stderr silences the cryptic & out of context error
messages printed by the `ethercat` command
The `dump_param_values()` method uploads all device SDO values and
returns in a dict of `{sdo_obj : value}` pairs.
Remove unneeded fixtures
The dash character in e.g. `-1` confuses the `ethercat` utility.  Fix
up the `ethercat download` command to explicitly signal the end of
options.
The `LCECCommand.upload()` method can now handle string types.
The `munge_config()` method was too rigid, requiring each key to be
named.  It also clobbered bits of the original.  Instead, copy the
whole raw device config, avoiding skipped and clobbered keys, and
munge just the bits that need munging.
Add objects shown in manual (and seen on drives) but not in original
ESI from Inovance

- 2002-06h, 2002-07h:  Stop mode settings
- 2004-18h:  Forced DO output in non-OP state
- 2005-08h, 2005-0Ah:  Electronic gear ratio settings
- 200D-03h:  Offline autotuning setting
The `index` attribute was unused other than to compute pin names in
the `HALDevice` class.  Replace it with a generic string used for
generated identifiers.
The base `Device` class `index` attribute, unused outside this class,
was removed.  Generate HAL pins by munging the `address` attribute
instead.
LinuxCNC doesn't support these
Add a general `ConfigIO` class.  It covers several cases, broken down
into categories:

- Config file source:
  - POSIX path for reading or writing
  - Python `importlib` resource (possibly in an "egg" zip file)

- Config file use case:
  - Open as IOStream object (can use as context manager; has `read()`,
    etc. methods)
  - Read (path + resource) or write (path only) YAML data

This will clean up config data handling for both the device manager
classes and their tests.  It makes sharing config data from package
resources easier, both internally within this package, and also for
use by external packages (the latter being the main motivation for
this change).
Following previous commit for `errors`.
Command and config classes don't have access to device class `name`
attribute.  This was a design error.
- Generate device config as class method
- Update test data for self-consistency
Real device configs should be usable in tests
In addition to YAML configs, also move XML ESI files.

Some rework in `hw_device_mgr.ethercat.xml_reader.EtherCATXMLReader`
needed to support this.

Use logger instead of `print()` in ESI parser so scripts can control
output.
To best generate lcec `ethercat.xml` files, the device's distributed
clock config should come from the ESI file.

Adding that showed that the ESI reading methods were tied to the SDO
parser and not reusable.  Those are now separated out into
`classmethod`s, and cached as well.

Also, added more complete plumbing for the XML parser `LcId` param.
- Improve ESI Dc OpMode test cases
- Add DC test YAML data
ESI descriptions may have `TxPdo` or `RxPdo` elements with `Entry`
subelements referring to dictionary objects not in the `Dictionary`
definition.  This commit parses those entries and adds them to the SDO
list.  It also adds default datatypes for an ESI with no `Dictionary`
definition at all.

Still missing is parsing the PDO mapping from those elements.

Also:
- Add `BITARR8` data type (iTegva)
- Clean up int formatting
- Add extra sanity checks
- Add PDO mapping objects to `BogusServo.xml`
- Add note to `BogusIO.xml`
