This fixes the following build issue on OSX:
Undefined symbols for architecture x86_64:
"_sr_drivers_init", referenced from:
_sr_init in backend.o
This closes bug #802.
This single object also contains the sr_drivers_init function, that will
always be referenced. That ensures that the drivers object files won't
be optimized out during static linking due to the fact that they are
not referenced directly.
This addresses (parts of) bug #802.
The sigrok core needs a list of all available drivers. Currently this list
is manually maintained by updating a global list whenever a driver is added
or removed.
Introduce a new special section that contains the list of all drivers. The
SR_REGISTER_DEV_DRIVER() and SR_REGISTER_DEV_DRIVER_LIST() macro is used to
add drivers to this new list. This is done by placing the pointers to the
driver into a special section. Since nothing else is in this section it is
known that it is simply a list of driver pointers and the core can iterate
over it as if it was an array.
The advantage of this approach is that the code necessary to add a driver
to the list is completely contained to the driver source and it is no
longer necessary to maintain a global list. If a driver is built it will
automatically appear in the list, if it is not built in won't. This means
that the list is always correct, whereas the previous approach used ifdefs
in the global driver list file which could get out-of-sync with the actual
condition when the driver was built.
Any sr_dev_driver structs that are no longer used outside the driver module
are marked as static.

Since Autoconf places some important feature flags only into the
configuration header, it is necessary to include it globally to
guarantee a consistent build.
Move the include flags for files in the source tree from
configure.ac to Makefile.am where they belong. Also use
AM_CPPFLAGS instead of CFLAGS/CXXFLAGS to make sure the
files in the build/source tree are always picked up first.
Also, remove the include/libsigrok sub-directory from the
search path, thereby making the <libsigrok/> prefix mandatory
when building libsigrok itself. This matches the convention
already imposed on users of the library.
Add a driver for the DER EE DE-5000 LCR meter. This meter is based on
the Cyrustek ES51919/ES51920 chipset and communicates with the host
computer via an optional connectivity kit.
The kit uses an optoisolated unidirectional link to connect to the
meter and an USB cable on the host side. Internally the connection is
using the FTDI FT232R USB UART chip i.e. from the host computer point
of view the meter is connected into an RS-232 serial port.
This driver implements just a thin shim layer for registering the
driver and uses the es51919 module for all the actual work.
The Brymen BM25x series supports the BC-20X that is an opto-isolated
serial cable. The link seems to be unidirectional i.e. when activated
the DMM periodically sends updates to the host while the host cannot
control the DMM in any way.
The protocol is documented in "6000-count-digital-multimeters-r1.pdf"
that is available from the manufacturer. Every 15 byte packet consists
of a bitmap where the bits correspond to segments or symbols on the
LCD display i.e. the DMM essentially sends the contents of its screen
to the host in every update. This driver then decodes the measured
quantity, unit and its value from the bitmap.
