Thomas f42af4e2ee [otci] add support for IPv4, vendor commands, networkdiagnostics (#11397)
With Thread 1.4 the cli application not can also (dns) resolve
IPv4 addresses. This commit adds the same support in otci

* dns_resolve4

Implements support for vendor operations in otci get/set

* vendor_name
* vendor_model
* vendor_sw_version

Implements network diagnostic commands

* get
* reset
* non_preferred_channels

Various other (small changes)"

* allow setting read timeout on serial connections
* allow replacing read routine filter
* expose latest thread versions in the public module api
* expand the definition of dns_get_config
* replaces mgmtget/mgmtset with the correct mgmtgetcommand and mgmtsetcommand
* replaces addressmode with the correct addrmode
* adds an `ignore_result` option to `execute_command`
* adds a missing `diag` command
* removes some unexisting getters

OpenThread Control Interface

The OpenThread Control Interface (OTCI) is a library which provides uniform Python interfaces to connect and control various kinds of devices running OpenThread.

Supported device types

Example

import otci

# Connect to an OTBR device via SSH
node1 = otci.connect_otbr_ssh("192.168.1.101")

# Connect to an OpenThread CLI device via Serial
node2 = otci.connect_cli_serial("/dev/ttyACM0"))

# Start node1 and wait for it to become the Leader
node1.dataset_init_buffer()
node1.dataset_set_buffer(network_name='test', network_key='00112233445566778899aabbccddeeff', panid=0xface, channel=11)
node1.dataset_commit_buffer('active')

node1.ifconfig_up()
node1.thread_start()
node1.wait(5)
assert node1.get_state() == "leader"

# Start the Commissioner role on node1
node1.commissioner_start()
node1.wait(3)

node1.commissioner_add_joiner("TEST123",eui64='*')

# Start node2
node2.ifconfig_up()
node2.set_router_selection_jitter(1)

# Start the Joiner role on node2 and wait for it to join the network
node2.joiner_start("TEST123")
node2.wait(10, expect_line="Join success")

# Wait for node 2 to become a Router
node2.thread_start()
node2.wait(5)
assert node2.get_state() == "router"
