Task

We need to trial an update to SOEM in order to test a ring topology in EtherCAT.

Acceptance

Update TIMflight SOEM directory to a download of the latest (compatible) version.

Details

That post has some links to soem, where you can find versions to download. The update version must have ec_init_redundant().

Do this work in a clean dedicated branch, because it's possible this opens a can of worms or a portal to dependency hell, to mix metaphors.

Is this deprecated now? or is this separate from our other motor stuff
