lincurve - one-dimensional lookup table

       Andy Pugh

       This component can be used to map any floating-point input to a floating-point output. Typical uses would
       include  linearisation  of  thermocouples,  defining  PID  gains  that  vary  with external factors or to
       substitute for any mathematical function where absolute accuracy is not required.

       The component can be thought of as a 2-dimensional graph of points in  (x,y)  space  joined  by  straight
       lines. The input value is located on the x axis, followed up until it touches the line, and the output of
       the component is set to the corresponding y-value.

       The (x,y) points are defined by the x-val-NN and y-val-NN parameters which need to be set in the HAL file
       using "setp" commands.

       The maximum number if (x,y) points supported is 16.

       For  input  values  less  than  the x-val-00 breakpoint the y-val-00 is returned.  For x greater than the
       largest x-val-NN the yval corresponding to x-max is returned (ie, no extrapolation is performed.)

       Sample usage: loadrt lincurve count=3 personality=4,4,4 for a set of three 4-element graphs.
