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

Centralize all connecting and disconnecting of links through
LinkManager::[Connect|Disconnect]Link api. Connect/Disconnect no longer
allowed through LinkInterface. This allows creation of new
LinkManager::setConnections[Suspended|Allowed] methods to disallow
connections as needed.

This api doesn’t make any sense given the fact that LinkInterface
signals bytesReceived with the bytes in the signal. Also the reason why
it is never called!

This way the delete happens on the right thread.

Fix execution context of thread routines - note that this is not quite the architecture the Qt folks intended, but as they admit its the consequence of their architecture.

Also commented out noisy serial link error output

Converted LinkInterface from a pure-virtual interface into an abstract base class. This centralized the data rate calculation code for all subclasses. Also added the necessary code to provide upstream/downstream data rate calculations for all LinkInterface-derived classes.

Renamed getNominalDataRate to getConnectionSpeed. Also added upstream/downstream data rate functions to all Link classes.

Removed LinkInterface methods which were never being called. Updated various LinkInterface implementation classes to remove the methods. Some methods such as the ones which measure data rates or bits sent/received were implemented in only some of the implementation classes, and in some cases implemented incorrectly. If they were called, the values returned would be incorrect. Although there was some partial implementation for these I removed them as well since in all case they were never being called by any code. In checking Blame, these came across in 2010 and have remained unimplemented since them, so I figure better to clean up than leave crufty, unused, half finished stuff in.
