Description

If MAVProxy is connected to a tcp source (eg. SITL) and the source restarts or connection interrupted, MAVProxy does not attempt to restart the connection. It should, in a fluffy rainbow world.

Research direction

Start by locating MAVProxy's TCP source connection handling and the disconnect path for a dropped or restarted source. Reproduce the SITL interruption scenario, then verify that the source connection is attempted again and remains usable after the source returns.
