Spec is incomplete to handle Tire Pressure Monitoring #6

@e100

Description

@e100

The spec does have Tire Pressure, but is missing Tire Temperature and Tire Sensor Battery OK status.

Some TPMS have other status, for example they might have a flag indicating they are moving or stationary.
While not necessary, if we can collect it seems like a good piece of data to record in the flight data recorder plugin.

Some report battery voltage, others simply report battery ok boolan value.
I think we should simply have a boolan, in the plugin I've written for the fixgateway it has the ability to convert a voltage to a boolean using a threshold on the voltage value.

While unrelated to this specific issue I wanted to mention that the new fixgateway plugin that can get TPMS sensor data could also be used to obtain weather data from a wireless weather station. Maybe we should extend the spec to have airport information like wind, temp, density altitude, etc.
