It's obsolete: no frontend ever used it, and neither did libsigrok.
The sdi->status field is only used internally by some drivers, and
should probably be moved to the driver-specific context structs.
This changes the semantics of the init() call as well. That now only
initializes the driver -- an administrative affair, no hardware gets
touched during this call. It returns a standard SR_OK or SR_ERR* code.
The scan() call does a discovery run for devices it knows, and returns
the number found. It can be called at any time.
It was actually used in one way: the session file loaded abused it for
passing in the filename -- something it definitely wasn't intended for.
This now uses the proper way to pass arguments to a driver: the new
SR_HWCAP_SESSIONFILE.
The OLS driver could also use it as an indication of the serial port to
use instead of actively probing all serial ports on the system, but there
wasn't any frontend code that passed in such a parameter, making it
entirely useless. That will soon be handled differently with the new
scan() API call, regardless.
Both pipe channels are currently configured as blocking. We read from the pipe
in receive_data. Since the channel is configured as blocking we'll block in
receive_data until all data has been received. receive_data will be called from
the mainloop, so as consequence the mainloop will be blocked until the demo
device has finished sampling. This is not so much of a problem if we are
sampling in blocking mode (using sr_session_run()) and the demo device is the
only device in the session, but it will fail badly for all other configurations
(e.g. multiple devices or async sampling).

The session and demo device code contain a hack to make the demo device work on
Windows. This was neccessary since polling on windows requires special handling
and we can not just pass in the raw fd to poll.
With the previous patches which added support for non-fd based event sources
this hack is no longer required. The patch moves the GIOChannels used by the
demo device to the demo device context and uses sr_session_source_add_channel
to register a source for the channels instead of using the raw pipe fds.

All frontends will have to include <libsigrok/libsigrok.h> from now on.
This header includes proto.h and version.h, both installed from the
distribution into $INCLUDE/libsigrok/ as well.
The only dynamically changed header is now version.h, which has both
libsigrok and libtool compile-time versions in it.
Only one limit should be active at a time. Make sure that the sample limit is
disabled when a time limit is set and vice versa.

Start/stop acquisition callbacks: Consistently name the 'void *' parameter
cb_data for now. The per-device-instance device pointer is called
'session_dev_id' everywhere for now, but this should be renamed to
something more clear.
This will come back in some form or another later, but for now
don't clutter the API with non-working stuff. Removing stuff from APIs
is not possible without breaking the API, adding stuff later is simpler.
Use SR_API to mark public API symbols, and SR_PRIV for private symbols.
Variables and functions marked 'static' are private already and don't
need SR_PRIV. However, functions which are not static (because they need
to be used in other libsigrok-internal files) but are also not meant to
be part of the public libsigrok API, must use SR_PRIV.
This uses the 'visibility' feature of gcc (requires gcc >= 4.0).
