- commander preflightcheck use estimator_sensor_bias message instead of EKF state index magic number
- ekf2 publish estimated bias limits in estimator_sensor_bias
- preflightcheck only error if bias estimate exceeds half of configured limit (delete COM_ARM_EKF_AB and COM_ARM_EKF_GB parameters)
- parameter updates can be quite expensive because they trigger nearly all modules to reload all of their parameters immediately
- limit modules from updating faster than once per second
* Added an option to the Simulator module to connect to remote Gazebo servers.
This is usefull when the Gazebo simulation is running on a different host than the PX4 instance.
For example, we are running instances of PX4 with a companion application in multiple Dockers, for swarming simulations, which then connect to a remote Gazebo server.
A "-t" input argument has been added and can be called from the rcS startup script as: simulator start -t "192.168.178.122" $simulator_tcp_port
* _tcp_remote_ipaddr defaults to nullptr. This way testing against nullptr it can be determined if localhost or remote host is desired by the user.
* Documented the option in usage().

Previously the coordinate_frame flag for setpoint_target_global_int message was not handled, resulting in the vehicle to not handle altitude correctly. This commit handles the relative altitude correctly.

This sets the throttle of the Multicopter actuators to the throttle stick position

- handle saving the mag bias per sensor (across all estimator instances using that mag) in sensors/vehicle_magnetometer
- this is now saving back to the actual mag calibration CAL_MAGn_OFF{X,Y,Z}
- ekf2 reset mag mag bias on any magnetometer or calibration change
- use Kalman filter scheme to update stored mag bias parameters using all available bias estimates for that sensor

The case when acceleration setpoints were being passed in offboard mode was triggering control_climbrate_mode. This prevented the vehicle from taking off, since it made the vehicle skip the rampup phase of the takeoff
This commit fixes this by handling the case properly
