Driver for the ESC32v3 speed controller

Motor is controlled with PWM. Data (voltage, current, RPM) are received from the serial link.

The driver should work with v2 and v3.

TBD:

send commands to change ESC settings through serial link.
support multiple ESC

Module functions

Init Functions

These initialization functions are called once on startup.

esc32_init()

Event Functions

These event functions are called in each cycle of the module event loop.

esc32_event()

Periodic Functions

These functions are called periodically at the specified frequency from the module periodic loop.

esc32_periodic()
- Frequency in Hz: 10
- Autorun: TRUE
  Periodic function automatically starts after init.
