Where do the AT codes live in the source tree?

[Chris McKenzie]

Hi. We are investigating whether we can improve the GNSS of the device.

We have found that it works inconsistently and sometimes doesn't sync at
all. We believe there may be ways of us interfacing it better but either we
don't want to conflict with existing code or we want to find out within the
code where we may be using things poorly and perhaps could just be doing
things wrong.
