Fault conditions #7

I had made a change in release v6.0 (maybe documented eleswhere, maybe not) that after 6 errors reported from the interface to RoboClaw or the application read an out of range value from the quadrature registers, I would stop communicating with it. It proved unworkable. Over time errors would accumulate and the communication to RoboClaw would stop. A more appropriate measure would be errors per 15 minute interval or some such a scheme. Currently, if an out of reange value is read from the quad registers, it is thrown away but its value is printed in the log. No action is taken on the error count.

Recovery from serial link errors is being addressed in issue number 9. I will close it and work the issue as a part of issue #9.
