 This is to add the Regulator Helper. This will include the regulator
 itself, a test with full coverage, an example for rtems-examples, and a
 chapter in the Classic API Guide.

 The regulator is designed to sit logically between two entities -- a
 source and a destination, where it limits the traffic sent to the
 destination to prevent it from being flooded with messages from the
 source. This can be used to accommodate bursty input from a source and
 meter it out to a destination.
