Support ANT+ Power profile

[GoogleCodeExporter]

Please describe what your requested feature would do, how it would work,
etc:
We should support directly talking to ANT+ power meters.

If you're a developer, are you willing to implement this yourself? (you
probably still want to let us know so we can discuss how it'll work and
whether we believe it's a good feature to be merged into the main mytracks
distribution)

This would be good but for it it to be useful you need to be able to connect to 
more than one sensor at the same time. The SRM Power control 7 connects to 
speed, cadence, power and heart rate sensors simultaneously and My Tracks would 
need to do the same. If it did, the Power Control 7 becomes unnecessary. 
Cyclists I work with may still prefer the Power Control 7 though because it 
doesn't require even a single button press to display stats and record a ride 
and they hate pressing buttons.

This issue is marked as Work-Large. Perhaps Google could use the Wahoo fitness 
Android Library for ANT sensors to reduce the effort.

When I asked Wahoo fitness the question "We would like to use the Wahoo Android 
library which we see in the Endomondo Android application. We can't find any 
information on your website. Can you provide us a link." they responded in mid 
November "We have not made a general release this API yet. We hope to have 
something in the next few weeks."

I have an App IpSensorMan beta on the market at the moment.  I am using this in 
my IpBike app to provide ANT sensor support in a manner that means that 
multiple Apps can get the sensor data simultaniously.  I have been asked to 
look at adding support for this into MyTracks.  I have not checked the code yet 
but I suspect that going via my IpSensorMan app the sensor can be made to look 
similar to the curent SRM pc7 setup eg just a single sensor but with all ther 
data.  

The IpSensorMap app looks after keeping track of the users sensors and pairling 
if nessasary.

I have just got the code out so I will check what the involved work looks like.

This is important as the app claims to work with SRM Power Meters but in fact 
it does not connect directly to the power meter. I spent some time trying to 
get My Tracks to connect with the power meter but failed. After some searching 
there is a hint that you need a SRM-ANT bridge of some sort which I do not 
have. 

Other apps (incl mapmy**) are able to do this so surely mytracks could to.  

I would like to see some clear indication that My Tracks connect connect 
directly to a SRM Power Meter.

Currently, the Ant+ power profile is not implemented. We welcome contribution 
from developers. We don't have a target date, but would like to support it soon.
