dump1090/Release
Malcolm Robb f7843c1691 Implement TCP Heartbeat
Some users have reported issues where the TCP link to dump1090 can be
lost at times of low traffic density - typically in the middle of the
night. One possible reason for this is that some routers drop the link
if there is no traffic for a predetermined period.

To try and resolve this, dump1090 now sends a 'null' packet consisting
of 7 "0x00" bytes approximately once a  minute if there is no real
received traffic during this time. This packet should be discarded by
the application receiving the dump1090 because it will have an invalid
checksum, and ICAO address 0x000000 is also invalid. However, this null
packet should be enough to keep routers alive.
