Code-generate for federated programs

[erlingrj]

TODOs:

• Nasty FlexPRET bug?
• Dont generate federate launch script unless we are targeting native
• Have LFC generate binaries for each federate into bin together with a simple shell script to invoke them (just like reactor-c)
• We should likely create a UcFederatedPlatformGenerator which is similar to UcStandaloneGenerator but fixes all of this for federated programs
• Main federate should likely be something like SimpleFederate_r for a program called SimpleFederate.lf and a federate instance called r.
• Consider doing all federated code-gen first, and then invoke CMake (now we do code-gen -> cmake , code-gen -> cmake).
• The sources variable seems to be global and shared between federates. Investigate
• Handle federated connections
• Disallow any reactions in top-level
• Propose an initial attribute syntax for federated connections

@tanneberger and @LasseRosenow this is a big PR and a big task to review it. But I hope you will take a look and give some feedback. Unfortunately the code-generator is still a little quirky trying to fit this federated generation into the existing non-federated architecture. But I think it is better to get this merged now and improve it as we go

[LasseRosenow]

Very nice! I have looked at the code so far and only have a few small questions :)

I will try to get a federated RIOT Coap example running and then approve :)
