Adds a method to determine the appropriate method of triggering a media
refresh of a given list of file based on the devices android version and root
status. If a device is running android marshmallow and below or has root, trigger a
refresh of the files containing folder otherwise trigger a refresh of each
individual file.
This is useful on later versions of android where a previously
installed application is missing required permissions without
having to reinstall the whole application.
In andoid terms the external storage usually means the internal emulated
sdcard located at '/sdcard/'. This is the usually the root location used for
applications to read files that are not part of the application itself
from.
Add a module for controlling and interacting with GPUs. The module
currently supports kgsl/adreno based GPUs. This allows for querying
and setting the governor on the GPU, as well as seeing the frequencies
at which the the GPU can can operate.

Elsewhere in devlib, we strip '\r' characters and then handle it as if
it was just normal unix style '\n'.
However in adb_shell, we have a newline_separator option which defaults
to windows style '\r\n'.
This commit removes the newline_separator() function in the
AdbConnection class, removes the use of this function in execute()
function, and removes the parameter from adb_shell() function.
Instead, in the adb_shell() function, the same action as elsewhere in
devlib is performed: replace('\r\n', '\n').replace('\r', '\n')
Currently if you never call wait_for, the underlying pexpect will not
read bytes from the logcat command's output into the log file. So
when we get into get_log, we need to force it to read all the
already-available bytes.
Once an ACME cape instrument is released, if the stop() method has not
been called by the client code, let's ensure to release the channels by
killing the corresponding iio-caputure process.

Using a pexpect.spawn object simplifies the LogcatMonitor by removing
the need for a separate thread along with the synchronization that
brings. Since pexpect.spawn creates a logfile that is flushed with
each write, it also removes the need for code to handle flushing.
I originally wrote this to allow more complex features that are made
possible by the pexpect API, however I then discovered those features
are not necessary and did not submit this for merging.
However I then discovered that in Python 2.7,
threading.Event.wait (used in the `wait_for` method) makes the task
uninterriptible (i.e. can't be killed with Ctrl+C/SIGINT), which is
rather frustrating. This issue doesn't arise when using pexpect's
expect method, so that's why I'm submitting this now.
Recently I've been seeing some errors with enabling airplane mode on
hikey960 - firstly I get a 'broken pipe' error followed by a 'cmd:
Can't find service: settings'. This missing boolean was the first
thing I found that had changed wrt. the code I used to use, and
adding it back appears to fix the issue.
'adb logcat -c' has been observed to fail when called twice concurrently. Rather
than requiring all devlib users to fix their usage patterns, let's just delay
whenever clear_logcat is called twice.
Due to the new read_tree_values API, some devlib modules now use
shutils in their __init__, which happens from
Target::connect(). Therefore ensure we have busybox on the target
before we get to that stage.
The previous fix for read_tree_values fixed the issue with sh not
supporting arrays, but looping over paths and counting them. Hover each
count increment requires spawning a subshell. For a large number of paths,
this can eat away any performance benefits of using read_tree_values.
Since we only care whether the count is greater than one, detect that
and break out of the loop early to re-introduce the performance
improvement.
