d5eab23f53 airspeed error message clarification (#7497)
In day to day practice, there are two reasons for fabsf(airspeed.differential_pressure_filtered_pa) > 15.0f

1/ The sensor has not been calibrated. In this case, the sensor needs to be calibrated.
2/ It's a windy day, and the operator has powered up the system without covering the pitot tube. In that case, you need to reboot with the pitot cover in place.

The original message ('Check calibration') is ok, but why not be more direct? The user does not have to "check the calibration" - the user has to (a) either calibrate the system in the first place, or (b) not forget the pitot tube cover when powering up the system.

4afa931d80 voted_sensors_update: fix mag rotation
fixes a wrong index for _mag_device_id: previously, driver_index was used
(the CAL_MAG param index), but the correct index is the uorb topic
instance.

ba3d66abba voted_sensors_update: fix invalid/stale mag data on posix
Problem: _mag_device_id is used to get the correct rotation matrix for each
mag. But on POSIX, _mag_device_id was always 0, leading to invalid rotation
matrices.
This resulted in stale mag error messages (rot matrix=0 ==> mag data=0).
_mag_device_id was 0 because there are no /dev/magX devices (eg. on RPi),
thus the mag driver could not be opened.

This patch does: get the device id from the uorb topic instead. We still
need the device handle on certain platforms to apply the calibration params
and to check if the mag is internal or external.

Problem left: on POSIX, the check for external mag does not work.

76f593afb0 fix voted_sensors_update: remove DevMgr::releaseHandle(h);
the 'continue' continues with the inner loop, whereas the outer loop is
responsible for opening the handle. Thus the inner loop needs to keep it
open.

a25330762a Commander: Adjust airspeed checks on prearm condition
The previous approach would work with old low-end sensors, but with new high-end sensors we get a lot of false alarms on the bench. Relaxing the check to only apply pre-arm will ensure its now only run when the user intents to take off, at which point the airframe should be with pitot covers off in the field.
