This converts most of the cached data to the field cache, leaving some garmin-specific fields alone (but removing them from the "cache" structure in the process). This means that all of the users of the string fields have been converted, and we don't have the duplicate string interfaces any more. Some of the other "dc_field_cache_t" fields could easily be used by other backends (including some of the partial conversions like the Shearwater one, but also backends that don't do any string fields at all), but this conversion was a fairly minimal "set up the infrastructure, and convert the easy parts". Considering that the string field stuff still isn't upstream, I'm not going to push any other backends to do more conversions. On the whole, the string code de-duplication was a fairly nice cleanup: 8 files changed, 340 insertions(+), 484 deletions(-) and perhaps more importantly will make it easier to do new backends in the future with smaller diffs against upstream.
