[SDL 0221] Remote Control - Allow Multiple Modules per Module Type

Proposal: Remote Control - Allow Multiple Modules per Module Type

SDL remote control baseline proposal SDL-0071 groups available controllable items of the same category into a RC module type. SDL defines six module types: RADIO, CLIMATE, AUDIO, LIGHT, HMI_SETTINGS and SEAT. SDL allows only one module per module type so far. However, there are production needs to support multiple modules of the same module type. For example, some vehicles in the market are equipped with "dual-zone" climate control systems. There are also "tri-zone" or even "quad-zone" climate control in the existing vehicles. Some vehicles in the market have seat control for several seats (driver's seat, front passenger's seat for example). Some vehicles have both a default entertainment system and a back seat entertainment system. There are car headrest monitors, seat back monitors, car roof mount monitors and flip down screens. Passengers can use a back seat entertainment system to play video, audio or even games.

Review: smartdevicelink/sdl_evolution#700

Steering Committee Decision:

The Steering Committee voted to accept this proposal with the following revisions:

• The default userLocation should be DRIVER to ensure backwards compatibility
• Add new non-mandatory userLocation parameter to SetGlobalProperties RPC instead of including userLocation as a parameter in each Remote Control request, such as GetInteriorVehicleDataConsent, SetInteriorVehicleData`, etc.

The proposal .md file was updated to reflect these revisions on 5/21/19.
