* Remove `MPC_USE_HTE` and always use hover thrust for altitude control
Note the separate module can still be not run but I have not seen a case where the hover thrust estimate is not useful for altitude control hence I don't expect anyone to have the parameter disabled or planning on not running the module.
This parameter was used to experimentally introduce the hover thrust estimator. First it was just logging its status and you could opt in to use it:
f9794e99f8
but soon after it became the default and you had to opt out of using it:
a8063ac948
AFAIK we haven't seen problems requiring to disable it in the last 5 years and hence I suggest to remove the parameter to reduce the configuration space.

When position control is disabled, clear the setpoint properly to prevent stale values. This fixes a bug where switching to position mode in the same control loop as a hover thrust estimate update could fill up the velocity integrator.
-add new NAVIGATION_STATE_ALTITUDE_VOYAGER
-this mode does require manual control to enter
-but you can disable the manual control loss failsafe to continue
flying in case of manual control loss
-for MC: in throttle and yaw are controlled like in Altitude mode,
the tilt is controlled via integrated rate input (similar to Acro,
but with tilt limit)

Previously, when switching from a goto setpoint into a mode that publishes
trajectory_setpoint, the previous goto setpoint was still used for 500ms,
which then caused a setpoint jump.
This change makes sure that when a trajectory_setpoint is received, any
existing goto setpoint is marked as invalid immediately.

The default implementation for multicopter Position mode is FlightTaskManualAcceleration.
The last missing piece was support for CollisionPrevention in this implementation.
* Remove euler angles from attitude setpoint message
* Remove usage of euler angles in attitude setpoint messages
This commit removes the usage of euler angles in the vehicle_attitude_setpoint messages
* Fix standard vtol
- MPC_VEL_LP: new velocity first order low pass filter (off by default)
- MPC_VEL_NF_FRQ/MPC_VEL_NF_BW: new velocity notch filter (off by default)
- MPC_VELD_LP: existing velocity derivative low pass filter, but I've dropped the remaining controllib usage
Using full 3D acceleration provides better horizontal acceleration
tracking but also creates a sometimes unwanted behavior because the tilt
is directly coupled with the vertical acceleration setpoint.
goto control class handles smoothing of goto setpoints, outputs trajectory setpoint for mc pos control
some minor encapsulation done in mc pos control for readability
new param MPC_YAWAAUTO_MAX limiting heading accelerations in heading smoother
- remove deprecated actuator_controls[INDEX_FLAPS/SPOILERS/AIRBRAKES]
- use new topic normalized_unsigned_setpoint.msg (with instances flaps_setpoint
and spoilers_setpoint) to pass into control allocation
- remove flaps/spoiler related fields from attitude_setpoint topic
- CA: add possibility to map flaps/spoilers to any control surface
- move flaps/spoiler pitch trimming to CA (previously called DTRIM_FLAPS/SPOILER)
- move manual flaps/spoiler handling from rate to attitude controller
FW Position controller: change how negative switch readings are intepreted
for flaps/spoilers (considered negative as 0).
VTOL: Rework spoiler publishing in hover
- pushlish spoiler_setpoint.msg in the VTOL module if in hover
- also set spoilers to land configuration if in Descend mode
Allocation: add slew rate limit of 0.5 to flaps/spoilers configuration change
Instead of doing the flaps/spoilers slew rate limiting in the FW Position Controller
(which then only is applied in Auto flight), do it consistently over all flight
modes, so also for manual modes.
