This allows a config file to specify many more parameters to the algorithm. The most significant for developers will be the ability to specify the patterns and positions of beacons for one or more sensors. Modified the default config file to do this for the OSVR HDK. Made a second config file that has all of the beacons (front and back) on one rigid sensor. Wrote the developer documentation for how to add new sensors.

…k for matches into a double-length repeated string that gets searched to reduce the processor load when looking for flashing pattern matches.
…t speed for accuracy) and maximum reprojection error (adjust report frequency vs. error).
…mbined sensor, assuming a radius for the head that the HDK is on and that the rear sensor ends up right behind the front one.
…ation file. Made a config file for the OSVR HDK with two sensors, and another one for the HDK with all of the beacons acting as a single sensor (with an assumed location on the back of an assumed-sized head). This enable tracking of both the front and the back of the head, but has large angles in between where there is no tracking and will get things wrong for other head sizes and mountings.

The device descriptor (specifically, the semantic section) should be dynamically created based on the config passed, if nothing else to allow the user to name their tracked targets and allow the plugin to normalize the coordinate system.

Also, these docs, as well as the other ones recently added, should be linked in from the Doxygen documentation. See the doc directory for examples of how to do this. May have to add the directory to the doxyfile (the common one) for some markdown and image search path.
