// Polling Transceiver
//
// Helper base class that encapsulates the emulation of continuous
// update and caching of a transceiver state.
//
// Collaborations
//
// Implements the TransceiverBase post action interface and provides
// the abstract poll() operation for sub-classes to implement. The
// poll operation is invoked every poll_interval seconds.
//
// Responsibilities
//
// Because some rig interfaces don't immediately update after a state
// change request; this class allows a rig a few polls to stabilise
// to the requested state before signalling the change. This means
// that clients don't see intermediate states that are sometimes
// inaccurate, e.g. changing the split TX frequency on Icom rigs
// requires a VFO switch and polls while switched will return the
// wrong current frequency.
