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.

- free memory is getting tight on these older boards (depending on
configuratoin) and the pixhawk 2 cube still has 2 other superior IMUs, so this is just
dropping dead weight
- 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
- generate PWM_MAIN 1-14
- generate PWM_AUX 1-8
- generate PWM_EXTRA 1-8
- px4io and pwm_out directly read configuration parameters
- only available and active physical outputs are actually shown for configuration
- overall saves flash despite adding many new parameters
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.
- 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.
