- currently the main change is that it reduces the max number of ORB multi instances to 4, but usage will be expanded as needed
- limits number of EKF2 multi instances to 2.
- enabled on all cortex m4 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
- skip avionics rail voltage check when USB connected
- skip forced reboot on USB disconnect if circuit breaker set
- avionics voltage preflight check don't silently fail if system_power unavailble
- explicitly set supply check circuit breaker (CBRK_SUPPLY_CHK)
- 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
- increase stack sizes to run cleanly under stackcheck
- this is likely overkill for most boards, but using stackcheck to set our minimum ensures we have a very safe margin on regular builds and it's something we can currently afford
- remove holybro_durandal-v1_stackcheck from test rack (there's only one unit)
- update to NuttX with stm32f4 and stm32f7 SPI DMA internal buffers
- remove explicit DMA buffer allocations from new IMU drivers
- restore original BOARD_DMA_ALLOC_POOL_SIZE
- decrease SPI DMA thresholds based on fmu-v2/v3/v4/v5 bench testing
* 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

Chip-select and SPI initialization uses the new config, whereas the drivers
still use the existing defines.
The configuration in board_config.h can be removed after all drivers are
updated.
- reduces amount of board configuration required
- removes the cyclic dependency between io_timers_t and timer_io_channels_t
Fixes a bug in the fmuk66-v3 config: the 2. timer has 3 channels associated
not 2.
Fixes a bug in the modelai config: the 2. timer has 4 channels associated.
- 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
- this is a new module for temperature compensation that consolidates the functionality previously handled in the sensors module (calculating runtime thermal corrections) and the events module (online thermal calibration)
- by collecting this functionality into a single module we can optionally disable it on systems where it's not used and save some flash (if disabled at build time) or memory (disabled at run time)
