The param is not really required anymore with the actuator
configuration. Also, when it is set to 0, RC doesn't work for some
boards which would be nice to avoid.

- re-enable once the estimator selector respects configured mag
priority (at least initially) or is otherwise able to automatically
prefer an external mag over internal
- for SITL disabled because the full matrix of esitmator instances
(IMUs X mags) was too many topics for logger currently
- 4096 of 3 hex digits each for rev and ver is enough.
#defines used in SPI versions do not be long format, use use the macro
- Board provides a prefix and the formatting is sized and built in
- No need for funky board_get_base_eeprom_mtd_manifest interface
Original mft is used where the abstraction is done with the MFT interface

- no longer start sercon or mavlink usb by default
- on USB connection (VBUS) monitor serial USB at low rate and start Mavlink if there's a HEARTBEAT or nshterm on 3 consecutive carriage returns
- the mavlink USB instance is automatically stopped and serdis executed if USB is disconnected
- skipping Mavlink USB (and sercon) saves a considerable amount of memory on older boards
- simple state machine to reset, configure, etc
- checked register mechanism (sensor will reset itself on configuration error)
- configured in 16 bit mode (1320 LSB/Gauss instead of 330 LSB/Gauss)
- adjusted orientation handling in driver to match datasheet as closely as possible
- in many external compass units the rotation was wrong and very difficult to actual determine how to set correctly
* [WIP] i2c_spi_buses: add '-q' for quiet startup flag
And enable for optional board sensors.
* ROMFS: rc.sensors try starting all optional I2C sensors quietly

- accel & gyro FIFOs enabled
- FIFO watermark on data ready interrupt
- sensor side filtering completely disabled
- gyro now respects `IMU_GYRO_RATEMAX` (up to 2 kHz)
- saves a few % cpu (at default rate)
Removes the calibration on startup, as these values were overwritten by
the system calibration values anyway.
So the only difference is that if all calibration scales were equal to 1,
the driver startup would have failed.
- refactor Run() into simple state machine
- perform reset and configuration in sensor bus thread
- when using data ready interrupt skip checking FIFO count
- fix periodic temperature sampling (rate limit to 1 Hz)
- refactor Run() into simple state machine
- perform reset and configuration in sensor bus thread
- when using data ready interrupt skip checking FIFO count
- it does nothing useful
- increases boot time by 2 seconds on pixhawk 4 due to a poll timeout:
IST8310 on I2C bus 3 at 0x0e (bus: 100 KHz, max: 400 KHz)
WARN [ist8310] ERROR: TIMEOUT 2
-moved rc.mavlink to the boards optional rc additions (now it's called rc.board_mavlink) to handle board specific mavlink needs (mavlink over usb, ethernet, additional streams, etc.)
-mavlink module will be responsible to usb defaults, therefore less args are needed to be passed to mavlink module if one wants to use mavlink over usb.
-the way to check if connection is usb is by it's designated variable and not by config mode.
