I/O and peripheral extensions

Add non-motion machine functions through reviewed Ethernet and USB integrations.

JetFlight applications can communicate with peripheral controllers and common serial interfaces. Planned open-source starters will show how Arduino, ESP32, and similar platforms can provide non-motion I/O for a machine or custom automation project.

The compatibility catalog is deliberately specific. A USB relay, USB-to-RS485, RS232, or CAN adapter is not considered supported because it shares a generic device class. The published entry names the device, driver assumptions, protocol, operating systems tested, and intended use.

Keep motion pulses and other timing-critical control on a motion controller. Peripheral starters are for relays, sensors, indicators, process equipment, and custom automation whose timing fits the documented interface.
