This needs AppAs support for a dry uplink.

@adriansmares in V2 this is quite hacky; afaik we generate some random metadata. What's most important is that we run the user specified frm_payload through the decoders and it becomes available like any other data uplink message. The purpose is to test decoders and integrations primarily.

This is a much requested feature. Let's try focussing on this issue by the end of June / early July.

_The Docs-team is now starting with documentation creation on writing payload formatters._

@adriansmares please reassign me once the AppAs support is done. Happy to pick this up directly thereafter.

The API has been added in #2919
