UI fw: load handheld audio mode on boot We have now reached the point where use of audio mode config files should be considered mandatory. In ACI usage we can tell users that they need to perform an AT@AUL of some appropriate audio mode, but in UI-enabled fw we really need to have the firmware load audio modes on its own, so that correct audio config gets established when the handset or development board runs on its own, without a connected host computer. Once have FC Venus with both main and headset audio channels and headset plug insertion detection, our fw will need to automatically load the handheld mode or the headset mode depending on the plug insertion state. For now we load only the handheld mode, which has been tuned for FC-HDS4 on FC Luna.

FC Tourmaline stdmodem functional configuration is equivalent to Magnetite
hybrid.  The only intentional diff from Magnetite to Tourmaline in the modem
configuration is the change of Nucleus: Magnetite uses the blob version of
Nucleus which came with TCS211-20070608, whereas Tourmaline uses the source
version of Nucleus by Comrade XVilka.  It is essentially a change from an
unknown version of Nucleus to a known one, thus it should generally be
considered an improvement - but as always with such changes, extensive
verification and testing needs to be done in order to ensure that nothing got
broken.

Aside from the one intentional change of Nucleus version, FC Tourmaline is an
entirely new firmware source tree, thus it is always possible that something
could have got broken unintentionally, particularly in rarely-tested areas of
the firmware.  Therefore, extensive testing will need to be done before we can
declare Tourmaline stdmodem as officially replacing Magnetite hybrid for stable
modem products.
