With Icom rigs that use MAIN?SUB VFOs there is a trade off when
setting the mode or frequency of the "other" VFO. Untill now Hamlib
uses the XCHG VFO command to address the "other" VFO. This has some
advantages, particularly it preserves the selected VFO and it
preserves memory mode of either VFO. The disadvantage is that any
split command causes the Rx to glitch when the VFO/MEMs are exchanged.
I have added a config parameter for Icom rigs called "no_xchg" which
forces the direct addressing of VFOs to set split mode/frequency. It
is a boolean option with a default of "0" (false) which equates to
prior behaviour. Setting it to "1" (true) will make the backend use
change VFO commands to set the "other" VFO. This means that TX on
"SUB" in split is assumed, that both are in VFO mode (not MEM), and
set/get split functions will leave the MAIN VFO selected.
The "1A 06" command to get the data mode returns 2 bytes rather than
the one byte documented in the user manual.
Fix indexing error, collect data mode from correct reply byte.
From Martin, CT1IQI:
"Several programs under Linux rely on Hamlib for control. I wanted to
try WSJT-X (digital modes like JT65) and found that my new IC-7100 was
not yet supported, also after having compiled the current git version of
Hamlib and having compiled WSJT-X against that.
So I added a IC-7100 by taking the ic-7200 and 7420 rig files as
example, be it without going (yet) through all of the very many commands
the ic-7100 supports.
This produced the situation where there was communication, e.g. setting
and reading frequencies, but the PTT control did not work. I debugged
that to actually the lack of a PTT mode in Hamlib that uses serial and
CAT at the same time; currently PTT per 'serial' seems equivalent to
toggling certain RS232 pins but not to any serial command level. So I
added a RIG_PTT_SERIAL_CAT mode for PTT control. Now the wsjt-x program
works nicely with the ic-7100 and controls both frequency and PTT via
the single USB cable."

The IC-726 doesn't accept passband width sub commands with the mode
command. Well it does for CW, but not for other modes. I have disabled
the sending passband width sub commands for this rig to at least get
the mode setting commands accepted by the rig.
Fix IC-475A/E mode set command.
As with IC-726 very limited passband width sub commands with mode set
command so disabled all for now.
The Icom IC-7x6Pro models support AFSK data modes with Tx audio
delivered via the back ACC socket. This mode is enabled and queried
via a separate "0x1A06" command and applies to USB, LSB, FM and, AM as
USB-D, LSB-D, FM-D and, AM-D respectively on the radio. I have added
all but AM because hamlib has no mode enumeration for AM Data mode.
Most of the IC-7xxx rigs have an extended version of this special
command which also involves width. This needs further work to
implement.

* The 746 has an APF, wasn't in its configuration, added, tested, works.
* The 756Pro has an ANF function, wasn't in its configuration, added,
tested, works.
* The 756Pro's signal strength conversion table was way wrong.
I noticed this while making scope plots in my program JRX --
the strong signals using the STRENGTH output would all flatten
out at a rather low level, but the RAWSTR output showed the
full range. Changed the conversion table, tested, fixed.
R8500 notes:
The R8500 on/off functions work differently than the other Icoms,
in fact it's not too strong to say that this radio is a breed apart.
Most Icom radios have a group command code for on/off functions (16),
then a code for the function, then a flag for on or off. The R8500
combines the second and third into one, and this required a bit of
recoding in "icom.c". Interestingly, someone had created some special
designators in "icom_defs.h" for the R8500, but then never coded them
to the degree that they worked. Now they work. :)
So the AGC, NB and APF functions all work now.
The R8500 doesn't have a preamp control, so I took that out.
The R8500 does have IF shift and a 3-step attenuater, so I put those in.

icom/icom.c - Initialize ack_len to the size of the response buffer
since it is an input to icom_transaction as well as an output.

directly. It works only in VFO_MEM mode.
* Make use of RIG_OP_XCHG when available in set_/get_split functions,
which allow this functions to work in VFO_MEM.
* rig_set_vfo(VFO_CURR) ez case
