Inter-Process Communication (IPC) with the FSFW

IPC is a necessary tool to let software entities communicate with each other. In general, for any Software, there are two primary ways for software entities to communicated with each other:

1. Shared Memory. If memory is shared between threads or tasks, memory access needs to be protected with a lock, also commonly called Mutex.
