Subject: [PATCH] Update to use new ALE ISD format (#292)

* ALE Isd Object Update (#275)

* Added the ability to use features from ale in usgscsm

* Updated ale found messages

* Updates to travis and appveyor accordingly

* Removed debug message

* Ale building changes, and initial stab at the line scanner

* Removed another json include

* Chunk of updates to get things building.

* Travis and appveyor updates

* Another app veyor update

* Added ale to travis conda install command

* Travis debug

* Maybe activate conda?

* See what's in ale

* Changed to Load

* Try build with find_package for ale

* Add json install

* Trying USE_EXTERNAL variable

* Trying with manual find_package for json

* Changed json to nlohmann

* Distortion updates and isd changes.

* Updated test ISD to use the new format provided by the ale ISD class for parsing

* Finalized line scan changes and updated the framer to use the new ale ISD object.

* Small test updates to deal with small changes in precision

* Fixed quaternion order and times (#290)

* Fixed quaternion order and times

* Working on framer

* forgot a type

* Updated tests for proper quaternion ordering

* Adjusted framer times

* Direct isd parsing (#291)

* line scanner done

* Updated to parse json with ale methods

* Logging Update (#289) (#293)

* Added and registered the log when a new plugin is being created

* Updated frame and ls models to log to a registered spdlogger only if it exists

* Updated h files in line with new named logger approach

* Fixed failing tests

* Resolved rebase changes that snuck back in

* Set default logger for framer

* Updated default logger for the framer

* Added more checks to prevent seg faults from a poorly set environment variable

* Removed try catch blocks and one register command

* Updated sensor models to carry around a pointer to the logger

Co-authored-by: acpaquette <acpaquette@usgs.gov>

* Revert "Logging Update (#289) (#293)"

This reverts commit d7f3cf525c797699af1d95539a6adecc0e93696f.

* More clean up

* Removed embedded json headers

* tabs to spaces

* Added comments and fixed typo

-default; will be used in @ref number_float_t)
-@tparam AllocatorType type of the allocator to use (`std::allocator` by

-
-@requirement The class satisfies the following concept requirements:
-- Basic
- - [DefaultConstructible](http://en.cppreference.com/w/cpp/concept/DefaultConstructible):
-   JSON values can be default constructed. The result will be a JSON null
-   value.
- - [MoveConstructible](http://en.cppreference.com/w/cpp/concept/MoveConstructible):
-   A JSON value can be constructed from an rvalue argument.
- - [CopyConstructible](http://en.cppreference.com/w/cpp/concept/CopyConstructible):
-   A JSON value can be copy-constructed from an lvalue expression.
- - [MoveAssignable](http://en.cppreference.com/w/cpp/concept/MoveAssignable):
-   A JSON value van be assigned from an rvalue argument.
- - [CopyAssignable](http://en.cppreference.com/w/cpp/concept/CopyAssignable):
-   A JSON value can be copy-assigned from an lvalue expression.
- - [Destructible](http://en.cppreference.com/w/cpp/concept/Destructible):
-   JSON values can be destructed.
-- Layout
- - [StandardLayoutType](http://en.cppreference.com/w/cpp/concept/StandardLayoutType):
-   JSON values have
-   [standard layout](http://en.cppreference.com/w/cpp/language/data_members#Standard_layout):
-   All non-static data members are private and standard layout types, the
-   class has no virtual functions or (virtual) base classes.
-- Library-wide
- - [EqualityComparable](http://en.cppreference.com/w/cpp/concept/EqualityComparable):
-   JSON values can be compared with `==`, see @ref
-   operator==(const_reference,const_reference).
- - [LessThanComparable](http://en.cppreference.com/w/cpp/concept/LessThanComparable):
-   JSON values can be compared with `<`, see @ref
-   operator<(const_reference,const_reference).
- - [Swappable](http://en.cppreference.com/w/cpp/concept/Swappable):
-   Any JSON lvalue or rvalue of can be swapped with any lvalue or rvalue of
-   other compatible types, using unqualified function call @ref swap().
- - [NullablePointer](http://en.cppreference.com/w/cpp/concept/NullablePointer):
-   JSON values can be compared against `std::nullptr_t` objects which are used
-   to model the `null` value.
-- Container
- - [Container](http://en.cppreference.com/w/cpp/concept/Container):
-   JSON values can be used like STL containers and provide iterator access.
- - [ReversibleContainer](http://en.cppreference.com/w/cpp/concept/ReversibleContainer);
-   JSON values can be used like STL containers and provide reverse iterator
-   access.
-
-@invariant The member variables @a m_value and @a m_type have the following
-relationship:
-- If `m_type == value_t::object`, then `m_value.object != nullptr`.
-- If `m_type == value_t::array`, then `m_value.array != nullptr`.
-- If `m_type == value_t::string`, then `m_value.string != nullptr`.
-The invariants are checked by member function assert_invariant().

-    @brief a type for an object
-
-    [RFC 7159](http://rfc7159.net/rfc7159) describes JSON objects as follows:
-    > An object is an unordered collection of zero or more name/value pairs,
-    > where a name is a string and a value is a string, number, boolean, null,
-    > object, or array.
-
-    To store objects in C++, a type is defined by the template parameters
-    described below.
-
-    @tparam ObjectType  the container to store objects (e.g., `std::map` or
-    `std::unordered_map`)
-    @tparam StringType the type of the keys or names (e.g., `std::string`).
-    The comparison function `std::less<StringType>` is used to order elements
-    inside the container.
-    @tparam AllocatorType the allocator to use for objects (e.g.,
-    `std::allocator`)
-
-    #### Default type
-
-    With the default values for @a ObjectType (`std::map`), @a StringType
-    (`std::string`), and @a AllocatorType (`std::allocator`), the default
-    value for @a object_t is:
-
-    @code {.cpp}
-    std::map<
-      std::string, // key_type
-      basic_json, // value_type
-      std::less<std::string>, // key_compare
-      std::allocator<std::pair<const std::string, basic_json>> // allocator_type
-    >
-    @endcode
-
-    #### Behavior
-
-    The choice of @a object_t influences the behavior of the JSON class. With
-    the default type, objects have the following behavior:
-
-    - When all names are unique, objects will be interoperable in the sense
-      that all software implementations receiving that object will agree on
-      the name-value mappings.
-    - When the names within an object are not unique, later stored name/value
-      pairs overwrite previously stored name/value pairs, leaving the used
-      names unique. For instance, `{"key": 1}` and `{"key": 2, "key": 1}` will
-      be treated as equal and both stored as `{"key": 1}`.
-    - Internally, name/value pairs are stored in lexicographical order of the
-      names. Objects will also be serialized (see @ref dump) in this order.
-      For instance, `{"b": 1, "a": 2}` and `{"a": 2, "b": 1}` will be stored
-      and serialized as `{"a": 2, "b": 1}`.
-    - When comparing objects, the order of the name/value pairs is irrelevant.
-      This makes objects interoperable in the sense that they will not be
-      affected by these differences. For instance, `{"b": 1, "a": 2}` and
-      `{"a": 2, "b": 1}` will be treated as equal.
-
-    #### Limits
-
-    [RFC 7159](http://rfc7159.net/rfc7159) specifies:
-    > An implementation may set limits on the maximum depth of nesting.
-
-    In this class, the object's limit of nesting is not constraint explicitly.
-    However, a maximum depth of nesting may be introduced by the compiler or
-    runtime environment. A theoretical limit can be queried by calling the
-    @ref max_size function of a JSON object.
-
-    #### Storage
-
-    Objects are stored as pointers in a @ref basic_json type. That is, for any
-    access to object values, a pointer of type `object_t*` must be
-    dereferenced.
-
-    @sa @ref array_t -- type for an array value
-
-    @since version 1.0.0
-
-    @note The order name/value pairs are added to the object is *not*
-    preserved by the library. Therefore, iterating an object may return
-    name/value pairs in a different order than they were originally stored. In
-    fact, keys will be traversed in alphabetical order as `std::map` with
-    `std::less` is used by default. Please note this behavior conforms to [RFC
-    7159](http://rfc7159.net/rfc7159), because any order implements the
-    specified "unordered" nature of JSON objects.

-
-    #### Encoding
-
-    Strings are stored in UTF-8 encoding. Therefore, functions like
-    `std::string::size()` or `std::string::length()` return the number of
-    bytes in the string rather than the number of characters or glyphs.
-
-    #### String comparison
-
-    [RFC 7159](http://rfc7159.net/rfc7159) states:
-    > Software implementations are typically required to test names of object
-    > members for equality. Implementations that transform the textual
-    > representation into sequences of Unicode code units and then perform the
-    > comparison numerically, code unit by code unit, are interoperable in the

-    > strings with escaped characters unconverted may incorrectly find that

-
-    This implementation is interoperable as it does compare strings code unit
-    by code unit.

-    This description includes both integer and floating-point numbers.
-    However, C++ allows more precise storage if it is known whether the number
-    is a signed integer, an unsigned integer or a floating-point number.
-    Therefore, three different types, @ref number_integer_t, @ref

-    @endcode
-
-    #### Default behavior
-
-    - The restrictions about leading zeros is not enforced in C++. Instead,
-      leading zeros in integer literals lead to an interpretation as octal
-      number. Internally, the value will be stored as decimal number. For
-      instance, the C++ integer literal `010` will be serialized to `8`.
-      During deserialization, leading zeros yield an error.
-    - Not-a-number (NaN) values will be serialized to `null`.
-
-    #### Limits
-
-    [RFC 7159](http://rfc7159.net/rfc7159) specifies:
-    > An implementation may set limits on the range and precision of numbers.
-
-    When the default type is used, the maximal integer number that can be
-    stored is `9223372036854775807` (INT64_MAX) and the minimal integer number
-    that can be stored is `-9223372036854775808` (INT64_MIN). Integer numbers
-    that are out of range will yield over/underflow when used in a
-    constructor. During deserialization, too large or small integer numbers
-    will be automatically be stored as @ref number_unsigned_t or @ref
-    number_float_t.
-
-    [RFC 7159](http://rfc7159.net/rfc7159) further states:
-    > Note that when such software is used, numbers that are integers and are
-    > in the range \f$[-2^{53}+1, 2^{53}-1]\f$ are interoperable in the sense

-    @brief per-element parser callback type
-
-    With a parser callback function, the result of parsing a JSON text can be
-    influenced. When passed to @ref parse(std::istream&, const
-    parser_callback_t) or @ref parse(const CharT, const parser_callback_t),
-    it is called on certain events (passed as @ref parse_event_t via parameter
-    @a event) with a set recursion depth @a depth and context JSON value
-    @a parsed. The return value of the callback function is a boolean
-    indicating whether the element that emitted the callback shall be kept or
-    not.
-
-    We distinguish six scenarios (determined by the event type) in which the
-    callback function can be called. The following table describes the values
-    of the parameters @a depth, @a event, and @a parsed.
-
-    parameter @a event | description | parameter @a depth | parameter @a parsed
-    ------------------ | ----------- | ------------------ | -------------------
-    parse_event_t::object_start | the parser read `{` and started to process a JSON object | depth of the parent of the JSON object | a JSON value with type discarded
-    parse_event_t::key | the parser read a key of a value in an object | depth of the currently parsed JSON object | a JSON string containing the key
-    parse_event_t::object_end | the parser read `}` and finished processing a JSON object | depth of the parent of the JSON object | the parsed JSON object
-    parse_event_t::array_start | the parser read `[` and started to process a JSON array | depth of the parent of the JSON array | a JSON value with type discarded
-    parse_event_t::array_end | the parser read `]` and finished processing a JSON array | depth of the parent of the JSON array | the parsed JSON array
-    parse_event_t::value | the parser finished reading a JSON value | depth of the value | the parsed JSON value
-
-    @image html callback_events.png "Example when certain parse events are triggered"
-
-    Discarding a value (i.e., returning `false`) has different effects
-    depending on the context in which function was called:
-
-    - Discarded values in structured types are skipped. That is, the parser
-      will behave as if the discarded value was never read.
-    - In case a value outside a structured type is skipped, it is replaced
-      with `null`. This case happens if the top-level element is skipped.
-
-    @param[in] depth  the depth of the recursion during parsing
-
-    @param[in] event  an event of type parse_event_t indicating the context in
-    the callback function has been called
-
-    @param[in,out] parsed  the current intermediate parse result; note that
-    writing to this value has no effect for parse_event_t::key events
-
-    @return Whether the JSON value which called the function during parsing
-    should be kept (`true`) or not (`false`). In the latter case, it is either
-    skipped completely or replaced by an empty discarded object.

-    @brief create a container (array or object) from an initializer list
-
-    Creates a JSON value of type array or object from the passed initializer
-    list @a init. In case @a type_deduction is `true` (default), the type of
-    the JSON value to be created is deducted from the initializer list @a init
-    according to the following rules:
-
-    1. If the list is empty, an empty JSON object value `{}` is created.
-    2. If the list consists of pairs whose first element is a string, a JSON
-       object value is created where the first elements of the pairs are
-       treated as keys and the second elements are as values.
-    3. In all other cases, an array is created.
-
-    The rules aim to create the best fit between a C++ initializer list and
-    JSON values. The rationale is as follows:
-
-    1. The empty initializer list is written as `{}` which is exactly an empty
-       JSON object.
-    2. C++ has now way of describing mapped types other than to list a list of
-       pairs. As JSON requires that keys must be of type string, rule 2 is the
-       weakest constraint one can pose on initializer lists to interpret them
-       as an object.
-    3. In all other cases, the initializer list could not be interpreted as
-       JSON object type, so interpreting it as JSON array type is safe.
-
-    With the rules described above, the following JSON values cannot be
-    expressed by an initializer list:
-
-    - the empty array (`[]`): use @ref array(std::initializer_list<basic_json>)
-      with an empty initializer list in this case
-    - arrays whose elements satisfy rule 2: use @ref
-      array(std::initializer_list<basic_json>) with the same initializer list
-      in this case
-
-    @note When used without parentheses around an empty initializer list, @ref
-    basic_json() is called instead of this function, yielding the JSON null
-    value.
-
-    @param[in] init  initializer list with JSON values
-
-    @param[in] type_deduction internal parameter; when set to `true`, the type
-    of the JSON value is deducted from the initializer list @a init; when set
-    to `false`, the type provided via @a manual_type is forced. This mode is
-    used by the functions @ref array(std::initializer_list<basic_json>) and
-    @ref object(std::initializer_list<basic_json>).
-
-    @param[in] manual_type internal parameter; when @a type_deduction is set
-    to `false`, the created JSON value will use the provided type (only @ref
-    value_t::array and @ref value_t::object are valid); when @a type_deduction
-    is set to `true`, this parameter has no effect
-
-    @throw std::domain_error if @a type_deduction is `false`, @a manual_type
-    is `value_t::object`, but @a init contains an element which is not a pair

-    @brief a template for a random access iterator for the @ref basic_json class
-
-    This class implements a both iterators (iterator and const_iterator) for the
-    @ref basic_json class.
-
-    @note An iterator is called *initialized* when a pointer to a JSON value
-          has been set (e.g., by a constructor or a copy assignment). If the
-          iterator is default-constructed, it is *uninitialized* and most
-          methods are undefined. **The library uses assertions to detect calls
-          on uninitialized iterators.**
-
-    @requirement The class satisfies the following concept requirements:
-    - [RandomAccessIterator](http://en.cppreference.com/w/cpp/concept/RandomAccessIterator):
-      The iterator that can be moved to point (forward and backward) to any
-      element in constant time.

-        This function implements a scanner for JSON. It is specified using

-        These regular expressions are then translated into a minimized
-        deterministic finite automaton (DFA) by the tool
-        [re2c](http://re2c.org). As a result, the translated code for this

-        Proposition: The loop below will always terminate for finite input.\n
-
-        Proof (by contradiction): Assume a finite input. To loop forever, the
-        loop must never hit code with a `break` statement. The only code
-        snippets without a `break` statement are the continue statements for
-        whitespace and byte-order-marks. To loop forever, the input must be an
-        infinite sequence of whitespace or byte-order-marks. This contradicts
-        the assumption of finite input, q.e.d.

-        quotes of the string value. The complete string is the range
-        [m_start,m_cursor). Consequently, we iterate from m_start+1 to
-        m_cursor-1.
-
-        We differentiate two cases:
-
-        1. Escaped characters. In this case, a new character is constructed
-           according to the nature of the escape. Some escapes create new
-           characters (e.g., `"\\n"` is replaced by `"\n"`), some are copied
-           as is (e.g., `"\\\\"`). Furthermore, Unicode escapes of the shape
-           `"\\uxxxx"` need special care. In this case, to_unicode takes care
-           of the construction of the values.
-        2. Unescaped characters are copied as is.
-
-        @pre `m_cursor - m_start >= 2`, meaning the length of the last token
-        is at least 2 bytes which is trivially true for any string (which
-        consists of at least two quotes).

-        Lemma: The loop body will always terminate.\n
-
-        Proof (by contradiction): Assume the loop body does not terminate. As
-        the loop body does not contain another loop, one of the called
-        functions must never return. The called functions are `std::strtoul`
-        and to_unicode. Neither function can loop forever, so the loop body
-        will never loop forever which contradicts the assumption that the loop
-        body does not terminate, q.e.d.\n
-
-        Lemma: The loop condition for the for loop is eventually false.\n
-
-        Proof (by contradiction): Assume the loop does not terminate. Due to
-        the above lemma, this can only be due to a tautological loop
-        condition; that is, the loop condition i < m_cursor - 1 must always be
-        true. Let x be the change of i for any loop iteration. Then
-        m_start + 1 + x < m_cursor - 1 must hold to loop indefinitely. This
-        can be rephrased to m_cursor - m_start - 2 > x. With the
-        precondition, we x <= 0, meaning that the loop condition holds
-        indefinitly if i is always decreased. However, observe that the value
-        of i is strictly increasing with each iteration, as it is incremented
-        by 1 in the iteration expression and never decremented inside the loop
-        body. Hence, the loop condition will eventually be false which
-        contradicts the assumption that the loop condition is a tautology,
-        q.e.d.

-
-    @invariant For two JSON values @a source and @a target, the following code
-    yields always `true`:
-    @code {.cpp}
-    source.patch(diff(source, target)) == target;
-    @endcode
-
-    @note Currently, only `remove`, `add`, and `replace` operations are
-          generated.
-
-    @param[in] source  JSON value to copare from
-    @param[in] target  JSON value to copare against
-    @param[in] path    helper value to create JSON pointers
-
-    @return a JSON patch to convert the @a source to @a target
-
-    @complexity Linear in the lengths of @a source and @a target.
