Heartbeat watchdog

A versatile watchdog and heartbeat traits for various monitoring purposes in mission-critical systems (processes, single threads etc).

The crate is a part of the RoboPLC project and works on Linux only. No other platforms support is planned, except bare-metal.

The crate provides out-of-the-box:

More communication methods can be added by implementing io::WatchdogIo and Heart traits.

For high-level communication (e.g. TCP/IP) the edges are encoded as “+” for rising and “.” for falling to simplify sniffing/debugging purposes.

The crate has got integration with embassy for no_std targets. Requires disabling defaults and enabling embassy feature.

The following heartbeat errors are detected:

Timeout - no heartbeat edge change has been detected within the specified time
Window - heartbeat edge change has been detected out of the time window
OutOfOrder - heartbeat edge change has been detected out of order (e.g. for TCP/IP communication)
