Other minor bugfixes here and there

v4.3.0: More timestamping and cleanups

  We can not change the homing procedure from EPICS anymore
  And not the home position either or VelToHome or VelFromHome
- Add ethercatmcPLCopenStateMachine.template
- Printing of changed AUX bits for an axis include bit 24 and 25,
  the reason bits static/dynamic problems
- More for records for timestamped motion: -TSE records
- Add a -Home PV to home via the driver; Use them in test 110
- Major restruction to support both Pils V2 and V3, see
  ethercatmcIndexerV2.cpp, ethercatmcIndexerV3.cpp
- Handle configurations where e.g. acceleration can not be
  changed in the MCU
- Some adaptions to prepare for the new naming convention at ESS:
  Use macros $(P) $(M) $(R) and $(PREFIX) more consistent
- Fix one glitch when the amplifier was turned off and on quickly
- Some improvements in putest36/
- Adaptions in different start scripts

v4.2.1: TO be deployed at YMIR

  Show OMSL in UI.
  Test case 800
- Add tests for the "new NTM" handling in ess-motor

Most probably ther fixes and improvements

v4.0.0: First PILS version

Collect all developments so far done for the PILS protocol.

Note:
The old FB_Drive_Virtual MCU code is still supported.

v3.0.4:

Several fixes/improvements for indexer/test code
  Introduced axisID for indewxer (testing only, see TC122)

Remove .travis.yml
  (Need to find another .ci tool)

Don't include ethercatmcPTP.iocsh any more
  This works for "classic EPICS", but needs more preparations
  for the ESS specific deployment systems.

Different fixes around HomProc, HomProc-RB and ...Pos

Unify helper PVs "homeVis" and "foffVis" and "CnenVis"
  Rename the "visible" helper PV's so that the name is more
  consistent.

v3.0.3: Various bugfixes

- ci scripts
- OPI
- automated test scripts: need python 3.6 (3.5 is obsolete anyway)

Major improvements for the PILS integration
- Indexer Code
- Handling of PTP + DC (Distributed Clock)

Alarm handling:
- Make the "-Err" PV alarm aware, a first step towards alarm handling

v3.0.2: virtualenv, readBackEncoders() for ECMC, opi fixes

Bug fix, kind of:
  Don't use readBackEncoders()

Several updates to run against the ESS version of motor, 7.0.1

Test suite:
  use python3 (python2 is soon obsolete)
  use pytest instead of nose
  use virtualenv to install needed packages "localy"

v3.0.1: iocsh scripts and bugfixes

- Rename the "generic startup scripts" into iocsh.
- Basic support for the PILS protocol.

(But can be used with master from epics-modules/motor if needed)
Several cleanups and improvements
Decrease the number of transations needed on the TCP/IP link,
this will improve the response time when many axes are used.

Slits; More readback

Prepare Db files and start scripts for  slit systems.
Improve the readback
Speed up the initial poll

EthercatMC together with motorRecord
