Basic functions: Shifting, PIDs

PID control should implemented on the Talon SRX motor controllers. See the user manual and the ramp-up feature guide on the vendor's web site: http://www.ctr-electronics.com/talon-srx.html#product_tabs_technical_resources

The ramp-up feature is exactly what we struggled with in autonomous code last year: how to slowly increase/decrease wheel speed to avoid slipping and sliding at the beginning and end of movement.
