- split up old module into two, one handling setpoint generation, one control
- add lateral and longitudinal control setpoints topics that can also be
injected from companion computer
- add configuration topics that (optionally) configure the controller
with limits and momentary settings

- new modules/simulation directory to collect all simulators and related modules
- new Tools/simulation directory to collect and organize scattered simulation submodules, scripts, etc
- simulation module renamed to simulator_mavlink
- sih renamed to simulator_sih (not a great name, but I wanted to be clear it was a simulator)
- ignition_simulator renamed to simulator_ignition_bridge
- large sitl_target.cmake split by simulation option and in some cases pushed to appropriate modules
- sitl targets broken down to what's actually available (eg jmavsim only has 1 model and 1 world)
- new Gazebo consistently referred to as Ignition for now (probably the least confusing thing until we fully drop Gazebo classic support someday)
Using mixers on the IO side had a remote benefit of being able to
override all control surfaces with a radio remote on a fixed wing.
This ended up not being used that much and since the original design
10 years ago (2011) we have been able to convince ourselves that the
overall system stability is at a level where this marginal benefit,
which is not present on multicopters, is not worth the hazzle.

- always check with state machine before reboot/shutdown
- respect BOARD_HAS_POWER_CONTROL (shutdown from command, low battery, power button)
- px4_shutdown_request add optional delay and always execute from HPWORK
- px4_shutdown_request split out px4_reboot_request
* MC_HTE: unitialize with hover_thrust parameter
* MC_HTE: constrain hover thrust setter between 0.1 and 0.9
* MC_HTE: integrate with land detector and velocity controller
* MCHoverThrustEstimator: Always publish an estimate even when not fusing measurements. This is required as the land detector and the position controller need to receive a hover thrust value.
* MC_HTE: use altitude agl threshold to start the estimator
local_position.z is relative to the origin of the EKF while dist_bottom
is above ground

- this is one of the last pieces of the system that still depend on DriverFramework
- add new SIM_GPS_NOISE_X parameter for optionally increasing the GPS noise multiplier (was previously a gpssim command line option)
- add SIM_x_BLOCK parameters to block sensor publication
- SIM_GPS_BLOCK
- SIM_ACCEL_BLOCK
- SIM_GYRO_BLOCK
- SIM_MAG_BLOCK
- SIM_BARO_BLOCK
- SIM_DPRES_BLOCK
This new airspeed module does:
-runns an airspeed validator for every airspeed sensor present, which checks measurement validity and estimates an airspeed scale
-selects another airspeed sensor if for the current one a failure is detected
-estimates airspeed with groundspeed-windspeed if no valid airspeed sensor is present
-outputs airspeed_validated topic
