Write the sensor data component

[LuxMiranda]

This assignment will involve working with physical hardware in the GAS laboratory.

We are finally at the point in which we can start writing SPA wrappers for our physical sensors! A SPA wrapper is basically a class that takes the drivers for each sensor and arranges their functionality into something that is SPA-compliant. Essentially, it should arrange the sensors' output into SpaData messages, handle incoming messages in a meaningful way, and handle other sensor-specific logic.

The SPA wrapper should be in lib/components and inherit from Component

The SensorData component will specifically be a wrapper to handle all of our strictly data-producing components:

• BNO055 Gyroscope
• MCP9808 Temperature sensor
• DS1307RTC Clock
• CoolSat Barometer
• TinyGPSPlus
• uCamII Camera

This, of course, requires interfacing the sensor with the Beaglebone Black. Study errno_3's code to find the necessary libraries and see how to use each sensor!
