### Description Module to provide persistent storage for the rest of the system in form of a simple database through a C API. Multiple backends are supported: - a file (eg. on the SD card) - RAM (this is obviously not persistent) It is used to store structured data of different types: mission waypoints, mission state and geofence polygons. Each type has a specific type and a fixed maximum amount of storage items, so that fast random access is possible. ### Implementation Reading and writing a single item is always atomic. If multiple items need to be read/modified atomically, there is an additional lock per item type via `dm_lock`. **DM_KEY_FENCE_POINTS** and **DM_KEY_SAFE_POINTS** items: the first data element is a `mission_stats_entry_s` struct, which stores the number of items for these types. These items are always updated atomically in one transaction (from the mavlink mission manager). During that time, navigator will try to acquire the geofence item lock, fail, and will not check for geofence violations. dataman <command> [arguments...] Commands: start [-f <val>] Storage file values: <file> [-r] Use RAM backend (NOT persistent) The options -f and -r are mutually exclusive. If nothing is specified, a file 'dataman' is used stop status print status info
注：print_usage函数是具体对应实现。
该模块纯C语言风格，提供类似数据库的API接口，后端可以采用固化文件存储或者RAM存储(类似Memcache)方式。
模块仅支持start/stop/status子命令，start子命令含f/r选项，其中f是文件后端保存数据，r是ram后端保存数据。

启动task_main任务来完成dataman的业务逻辑。

数据一致性和有效性的角度，模块提供了lock/trylock/unlock方法来保证read/write/clear。
