server: Use ringbuffer for socket backlog Currently, the socket handler uses a linear buffer for the backlog data; this means we need to shift up to 128kB of data after each socket write(). This change introduces a single-producer-multiple-consumer ringbuffer, to avoid the need for memmove()ing data around; we can simply update pointers instead of shifting data. We add this as a new file (ringbuffer.c), to make it a little more modular. To mitigate the risk of subtle pointer arithmetic issues, we add a set of tests too.

Note: In addition to a toolchain and autoconf tools, this requires autotools-archive to be installed.
To build this project, run the following shell commands:
./bootstrap.sh
./configure ${CONFIGURE_FLAGS}
make
To fully clean the repository, run:
./bootstrap.sh clean
Running the server requires a serial port (e.g. /dev/ttyS0):
touch obmc-console.conf ./obmc-console-server --config obmc-console.conf ttyS0
To connect to the server, simply run the client:
./obmc-console-client
To disconnect the client, use the standard ~. combination.
