dshot: fix motor test on CANnode
Also includes fixes for the DShot driver since stop_outputs is removed. The esc info command has been removed because it doesn't work with AM32, can only be used via command line, and complicates the driver
This allows to consistently define:
Motor stopped - disarmed PWM
Motor idling - minimum PWM
Motor at full thrust - maximum PWM
Any allocation can then distinctly decide if
a motor should be running or not depending
on the context and also explicitly command that.
Before, the logic to update disarm and rate values also triggered during
bootup on the px4io, because the output functions are only set in
updateSubscriptions().
Therefore change the check to prevent updating during the first cycle.
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.

This fixes an invalid memory access when exiting the module:
exit_and_cleanup destroys the object, but lock_guard is destructed after
and accesses the lock.
- fixes the deadlock in px4io ioctl mixer reset
- px4io Run() locks (CDev semaphore)
- mixer load goes through px4io ioctl MIXERIOCRESET which calls MixingOutput::resetMixerThreadSafe()
- MixingOutput::resetMixerThreadSafe() stores a Command::Type::resetMixer command in an atomic variable, schedules a work queue cycle, then sleep spins until the command is cleared
- the execution of the cycle eventually calls back into PX4IO::updateOutputs(), which tries to lock (and waits forever)
and remove the possibility to set min > max to reverse.
Initially the idea was to add the checkbox on the UI side, to avoid adding
another param, but I don't think I'll go through the extra effort on the
QGC side.
CA: fix saturation computation
Since the CA matrix is normalized, the same scale applied to be used when using the effectiveness matrix
MCRateControl: use control_allocator_status to get saturation info
This fixes the case where oneshot was enabled with multi-instance pwm_out,
triggering oneshot updates too close to each other and as a result could
lead to spinning motors while disarmed.
The defaults changed in the previous commit for per-channel params,
so we make sure that the overall params are still used as long as the
per-channel params are default.
This happened with multi-instance, when the second instance did not load
a mixer. Then the first instance would always return false in
update_pwm_out_state, and continuously call up_pwm_servo_arm.
This led to irregular pulses, e.g. with an output set to fixed 1500us, I
saw pulses of e.g. 1800us occationally (they were in a range of
[1500-2100]).
This allows modules to do a first-come-first-serve pin/timer reservation
on bootup.
E.g. camera trigger reserves any of the pins, and then PWM/DShot output
will just use the rest of the available pins.
Only update PWM params on initialisation.
Updating PWM params on param change was interfering with VTOL
parameter settings (e.g. PWM_MIN is set by VTOL at init, and
was then overwritten here after an arbitrary param change).
