Before this the ESC calibration aborts if battery detection doesn't work.
The problem is if the user still connects the battery as he gets instructed
and the calibration aborts then the ESCs are in calibration mode and
after abortion calibrate to the wrong value.
Also I realized there's no additional safety by aborting the calibration
if the battery cannot be detected during the timeout because a pixhawk
board without power module will report a battery status from the
ADC driverand in it that no battery is connected which is the best
it can do. In this situation the motors will still spin if the
ESCs are powered.
Some ESCs e.g. Gaui enter the menu relatively quickly if the
signal is high for too long. To solve that it's kept high shorter.
Also all tested ESCs detect the low signal within a shorter time
so no need to wait longer.
- Change timings for a more reliable calibration.
- Make sure there's an error message when battery measurement is not
available also when it gets disabled after system boot in the power
just above the calibration button.
- Safety check if measured electrical current goes up after issuing the
high calibration value for the case the user did not unplug power
and the detection either fails or is not enforced.
internal PX4IO safety_off state is removed and replaced with a normal safety button event. From this 'commit' commander is taking care of the PX4IO safety.

The bulk of this change was tightly coupled and needed to be deleted in one pass. Some of the smaller changes were things that broke as a result of the initial purge and subsequently fixed by further eradicating unnecessary platform differences. Finally, I deleted any dead code I came across in the related files I touched while going through everything.
- DriverFramework (src/lib/DriverFramework submodule) completely removed
- added dspal submodule in qurt platform (was brought in via DriverFramework)
- all df wrapper drivers removed
- all boards using df wrapper drivers updated to use in tree equivalents
- unused empty arch/board.h on posix and qurt removed
- unused IOCTLs removed (pub block, priv, etc)
- Integrator delete methods only used from df wrapper drivers
- commander: sensor calibration use "NuttX version" everywhere for now
- sensors: update to px4_{open, read, close} instead of DevMgr wrapper (adc open for analog differential pressure)
- battery_status: update to px4_{open, read, close} instead of DevMgr wrapper (adc open for analog differential pressure)
- cdev cleanup conflicting typedefs and names with actual OS (pollevent_t, etc)
- load_mon and top remove from linux boards (unused)
- delete unused PX4_MAIN_FUNCTION
- delete unused getreg32 macro
- delete unused SIOCDEVPRIVATE define
- named each platform tasks consistently
- posix list_devices and list_topics removed (list_files now shows all virtual files)
and remove the px4_ prefix, except for px4_config.h.
command to update includes:
for k in app.h atomic.h cli.h console_buffer.h defines.h getopt.h i2c.h init.h log.h micro_hal.h module.h module_params.h param.h param_macros.h posix.h sem.h sem.hpp shmem.h shutdown.h tasks.h time.h workqueue.h; do for i in $(grep -rl 'include <px4_'$k src platforms boards); do sed -i 's/#include <px4_'$k'/#include <px4_platform_common\/'$k/ $i; done; done
for in $(grep -rl 'include <px4_config.h' src platforms boards); do sed -i 's/#include <px4_config.h/#include <px4_platform_common\/px4_config.h'/ $i; done
Transitional headers for submodules are added (px4_{defines,log,time}.h)
- do not do calibration if not very sure that battery is not connected
- initialise all structs and variables

The calibration warning was only used in the ESC calibration and in all
cases it actually meant that the calibration failed. In order to keep
the API as small as possible, I've deprecated the warning string and
converted the warning messages to failed messages.
There were some missed calls to open and ioctl that need to be
px4_open and px4_ioctl.
QuRT also does not provide usleep() so px4_time.h has to be included
in files calling usleep.
