Chip L. 7bfd6ee33e wireless/cc1101: Add MSK/4-FSK, dynamic PATABLE ramping, and fix IOCTL safety
This commit overhauls the CC1101 RF driver to address physical hardware
constraints, prevent register wrap-around overflows, and support accurate
dBm power scaling via the standard IOCTL interface.

What this change does:
1. Adds WLIOC_MSK and WLIOC_4FSK modulation support in `ioctl.h` and driver.
2. Replaces static PATABLE initialization with a dynamic Ramp-up curve
   generator `cc1101_ioctl_apply_power()` based on lab calibration data.
3. Modifies WLIOC_SETTXPOWER and WLIOC_GETTXPOWER to process actual dBm
   values with a nearest-match algorithm instead of raw array indices.
4. Removes DEBUGASSERT on user-space IOCTL pointers and replaces them
   with strict -EFAULT checks.
5. Implements saturation clamping (e.g., mantissa to 256-511) to prevent
   bitrate and frequency deviation calculation overflows.
6. Rebuilds volatile PATABLE memory upon SLEEP mode wake-up.

Why it is necessary & what it fixes:
- Fixes severe OOK modulation distortion and FSK spectral splatter caused
  by statically assigned PATABLE indices.
- Fixes potential kernel panic in flat builds when IOCTL receives a NULL
  pointer from user space.
- Fixes register wrap-around (silent failures) when users pass
  out-of-bounds baud rate or FDEV values.
- Prevents RF silence after SLEEP mode due to PATABLE volatility.
- Resolves inaccurate power output when changing frequencies dynamically.

Impact:
Changes the behavior of CC1101 TX power and modulation IOCTLs to strictly
comply with standard `wlioc` definitions. Improves overall driver stability
and hardware safety.

Apache NuttX is a real-time operating system (RTOS) with an emphasis on standards compliance and small footprint. Scalable from 8-bit to 64-bit microcontroller environments, the primary governing standards in NuttX are POSIX and ANSI standards. Additional standard APIs from Unix and other common RTOSs (such as VxWorks) are adopted for functionality not available under these standards, or for functionality that is not appropriate for deeply-embedded environments (such as fork()).

For brevity, many parts of the documentation will refer to Apache NuttX as simply NuttX.

Getting Started

First time on NuttX? Read the Getting Started guide! If you don't have a board available, NuttX has its own simulator that you can run on terminal.

Documentation

You can find the current NuttX documentation on the Documentation Page.

Alternatively, you can build the documentation yourself by following the Documentation Build Instructions.

The old NuttX documentation is still available in the Apache wiki.

Supported Boards

NuttX supports a wide variety of platforms. See the full list on the Supported Platforms page.
