Convert ASAP2 A2L files to TunerPro XDF files

A2L2XDF

Uses the excellent pyA2L library to generate an XDF using data from an A2L. See included CSV format for examples.

Only tested on a small subset of A2Ls which use AXIS_PTS_REF - the concepts, however, should be fairly universal.

A few notes:

• Open the A2L and re-save it using UTF-8. Many A2Ls are in LATIN-1 or worse ASCII with wrong characters. Saving it as UTF-8 solves a lot of pain.
• PyA2L has issues with "// " strings in descriptions. Search for "//=" and replace with "=".
• PyA2L has a few other weird parse issues you may need to fix manually.

PDX2CSV

• Unzip a PDX file to a directory.
• Run "python3 pdx2csv.py "
• Checkout dtcs.csv and diag.csv for DTCs and $22 identifiers respectively.

Tested on PDX from several vendors.
