Setup Mavlink Router #3

Still need some discussion on how exactly we want to implement this but basically we'll want two things listening to the Mavlink message stream:

  1. The vision system (Python script)
  2. QGroundControl (so we can see data in real-time)

I have no experience with Mavlink-Router but this seems like it could let us split these telemetry streams. I'm also hoping it allows us to send commands from both the vision system and QGroundControl, though more research is needed.

The final setup should allow us to use the flight simulator/replayer (on a UDP port) OR a real Mavlink device (on a tty device) and it should pipe commands and receive telemetry from both the vision system and QGroundControl.
