add a simple method to check devices (mainly motors) for each mechanism

[dejabot]

Description

Thought experiment to add a simple method to check devices (mainly motors for now) for each mechanism and add a CheckDevices procedure that we could call from eg DebugOI to run those checks and signal success/failure via the lights.

Could be useful for a very quick, simple pit test. Meant to complement more thorough automatic and/or manual tests.

Sending to see if students may be interested in doing something like this as part of systematizing our pit tests.

How Has This Been Tested?

Needs to be tested by:

• adding a DebugOI integration.

• deploying on RevA.

• checking that if all devices are healthy, we see green.

• checking that if a CAN bus wire or if power is disconnected for a device, we see red.

• Unit tests: [Add your description here]

lgtm for 2024. we should reevaluate for a better-integrated code architecture in the off-season

thanks! agreed. this is a contained change for comp season (iff the students want to use something like this).

for off-season, I agree that we should find ways to make this procedure catalog devices to query more easily or even automatically. I'd also like to see how we can improve the logic for whether or not a device is healthy, for more devices.
