FFI ACQ4/ZeroMQ accessible functions

Functions

wave FFI_ReturnTPValues()

Function to return Peak Resistance, Steady State Resistance to ACQ4 (Neurophysiology Acquisition and Analysis System. See http://acq4.org/ for more details)

The function will pull the values (PeakResistance, SteadyStateResistance, and TimeStamp) out of the TP storage wave and put them in a 3x8 wave, in a designated location where ACQ4 can then find them

wave FFI_GetAvailableMessageFilters()

Return a text wave with all available message filters for Publisher/Subscriber ZeroMQ sockets.
