Tacx Fortius Support

Initial support for Tacx Fortius devices.

Note this requires libusb support to be present and will
work on Linux, Mac and Windows.

The handlebar buttons up/down will increase/decrease the
load/intensity in a similar fashion to the +/- keys on
the Computrainer controller.

The cancel button will stop a workout and the enter key
is used to mark a lap.

D link dbt 122 select the correct hardware revision. Dbt 122 driver for mac. Update your calendar and contact list, instantly transfer songs and photos, and utilize a Bluetooth keyboard and mouse with the convenient Wireless Bluetooth 2.

Slope and Ergo modes are supported, but we do not set the
brake at all if the speed is below 10kph, this is to
ensure it does not get burnt out when users 'grind'.

SPECIAL NOTE:

The Fortius handlebar controller is a Ez-Usb device
and requires firmware to be loaded when it is connected.
Since this is copyrighted by Tacx BV we do not distribute
it, instead, when the user sets up a Fortius device they
must also provide the file. Full instructions on how this
should be done are given when configuring the device.
Additionally, for Linux users udev rules should be added to
ensure that the USB devices are accessible to non-root users.

Fixes #538.
