* Add BACnet authentication factor support with comparison functions and text strings and parsing
* Fix MyReadPropertyAckHandler to allow zero length for empty property list
* Fix rp_ack_fully_decode_service_request to handle empty recipient list
* Enhance PrintReadPropertyArray to handle empty lists with improved output formatting
* Refactor command line argument handling for target-address to accept dotted IP if offered.
* This commit introduces the inclusion of `authentication_factor.c` and `authentication_factor_format.c` in the CMakeLists.txt files for multiple BACnet tests to fix the broken test builds.
* Refactor bacapp.c for improved readability and documentation; streamline code formatting and enhance function comments.
* Fix return value assignment in bacapp_snprintf_value for authentication format
* Enhance help message to clarify target MAC or IP address format and improve readability
* Implement memory management for ReadProperty ACK service requests and improve error handling in decoding
* Refactored BACnetShedLevel encoding, decoding, and printing into separate file. Added unit testing.
* Added API to load control object for shed-level, start-time, duty-window, full-duty-baseline, and enable.
* Fixed bacapp sprintf for shed level and host-n-port found in scan build.
* Added a new getter API function Timer_State_Change_Value_Get() to the timer object that returns state-change values by copying them to a caller-provided buffer, providing a safer alternative to the existing Timer_State_Change_Value() function which returns a direct pointer to internal data.
* Added basic timer object, internal state machine, and unit tests
* Added BACnetTimerStateChangeValue encode, decode, parse, print, and diff with unit tests
* Changed handler of add/remove list element to check if the property is a BACnetLIST
* Added BACnetLIST utility for handling WriteProperty to a list.
* Fixed outlier ReadProperty object handlers to return zero when the RP parameter is NULL.
