Changed settings version as the link configurations must be redone (with the new port names)

Also fixed a typo (copy/paste error) in the TCP link settings loading where it was using the UDP port as the default value instead of the TCP port.

I understand the intent when this was first created but nobody is using it and it no longer fits the context. If and when a need to abstract the serial link comes back, we can revisit this.

Also converted qDebug statements to logging category

I noticed that some times, the disconnect signal would get to the updateConnect button (tool bar) before the link was physically disconnected. That would cause it to count it as a still connected link and get the connect button logic out of sync.
While at it, added an interface to the UDP link to return its configuration instance. That allows the LinkManager to unlink it when disconnecting it.

This came through google groups and as the change is right where I'd been working, I added it here to avoid collision.

The goal of this first installment is to organize the code a bit so it's more readable,
clean up a bit of left over cruft, and manage link configurations (and links in general).

There's also a partial fix for the databits and stopbits. I'm unsure how to deal with the logic
around the 'is_cdc' variable, as I can't really follow what it's for.

Now works for more than Serial links

Moving methods from MainWindow to QGCApplication so that more things
can run without a window. Helpful for testing.

Plus a large number of other changes to allow for orderly shutdown of
objects without crashes or asserts. This is need for unit tests to
create/delete global state around every test.

This makes unit test output easier to read

This makes unit test output easier to read

This function is called automatically when a QSettings object is destroyed,
so is rarely needed to be called explicitly.

There are still some cases where
a QSettings object is passed-by-reference, so there I left the sync() calls as
it's unclear how permanent those objects are and if they'd call sync() before
application shutdown

Fix linux compiler warning

Largest change is that once a link is added to LinkManager it maintains
ownership and is responsible for delete. If you need to delete a link
use LinkManager::delete. Also added guard code to assert if a Link is
deleted outside of LinkManager.

- allow unit tests to use QGCApplication
- clear global singletons for each unit test run
