The transceiver reset takes quite a while. It seems that also going into
sleep mode has the effect of stopping cw test mode and it's much faster.
This has only been tried on the AT86RF231. For AT86RF230, we therefore
still use the reset.
Performance improvement:

after 2.08 s (27-28% of previous time)
- lib/misctxrx.c (tx_pwr_230, tx_pwr_231): declare tables as "const"
- lib/misctxrx.c (POWER_TABLE_SIZE, set_power_dBm): don't open-code the
table size calculation
- lib/misctxrx.c (tx_power_table, set_power_dBm): moved transmit power
table selection out of set_power_dBm
- include/misctxrx.h (tx_power_dBm2step, tx_power_step2dBm),
lib/misctxrx.c (tx_power_dBm2step, tx_power_step2dBm, set_power_dBm):
moved conversion functions out of set_power_dBm and made them globally
available
- atrf-txrx/atrf-txrx.c (tx_pwr_230, tx_pwr_231, set_power): moved to
lib/misctxrx.c
- include/misctxrx.h, lib/misctxr.c (set_power_step, set_power_dBm):
separated dBm to index conversion from the actual operation
- atrf-txrx/atrf-txrx.c (main): use new set_power_dBm instead of old
set_power
- atnet.c: introduced descriptor structure, replacing direct netio handle
- atnet.c (reply, error): moved global variables into descriptor
- atnet.c (atnet_reg_read, atnet_interrupt): when complaining about an
invalid response, skip the leading "+"
- atusb.c: introduced descriptor structure, replacing direct USB device
handle
- atusb.c (error): moved global variable into descriptor
- driver.h (atusb_dev_handle), atusb.c (atusb_dev_handle), atrf.c
(atrf_usb_handle): call driver to perform the no longer trivial
translation

- driver.h (atnet_driver), atrf.c (drivers): added the atnet driver
- atrf.c (drivers): moved the driver list closer to the top
- usbopen.h (usb_unrestrict), usbusb.c (usb_unrestrict): drop ID and
path restrictions
- atusb.c (atusb_open): call usb_unrestrict to remove restrictions
- lib/Makefile (OBJS), include/cwtest.h (cw_test_begin, cw_test_end),

cw_test_begin, cw_test_end): moved constant wave test mode setup
over from atrf-txrx.c

with it
We shared it across projects so far, but since the code will be further
customized, it's better to keep it local (at least for a while).
- usbopen.h, usbopen.c: moved over f32xbase/include/usb.h and
f32xbase/lib/usb.c (for further customization)

violation
- include/atrf.h (atrf_default_driver_name),
lib/atrf.c (atrf_default_driver_name): return the name of the default

atrf_open("name") or atrf_open("name:driver-specific-arguments")
The driver name is "ben" or "usb".

function

device and return ID from cache
When some interrupt(s) happened but the one(s) wait_for_interrupt was
waiting for weren't among them, it printed the list of interrupts
even if they were all in "ignore". This made sequences like RX_START
followed by TRX_END unnecessarily noisy.
Now, wait_for_interrupt only prints the pending interrupts if at
least one of them is not in "ignore".
