console: Tool to merge multiple DLT files
- Sort in dlt-sortbytimestamp: first sorted by time,
second sorted by timestamp.
- Support multiple compressed files in dlt-convert.
These changes is based on use case:
User can expects to join several dlt files which are compressed in
tar.gz file (maybe per component). Moreover, currently the existing
sort is only applicaple for single boot cycle. There should be a
support for sorting multiple cyclic boots in one dlt file.
