fff2bd50f6 EKF: Fix bugs in position and velocity resets
The position reset was not being compensated for velocity and measurement delay
The height was being reset with the position. It has been moved into a separate reset function
The maximum accepted GPS delay of 100msec was inadequate
The states  was being incorrectly reset to the GPS position and Baro height on initial alignment.

5ea0ef39cd EKF: Update declination fusion logic
We do not need to run declination fusion if 3-axis mag fusion is not being used.

dbb8e12948 EKF: Add fusion method to constrain declination when unobservable
When fusing 3-axis magnetometer data without absolute external aiding leg GPS), the declination is ultimately unobservable and the declination of the  field states and the vehicle heading will slowly drift over time. To prevent this we need to fuse in a declination to constraint the NE earth field estimates.

2c8c6efb45 EKF: Eliminate use of power function to square numbers
Use of the power function to square a number can be very inefficient depending on processor and compiler. Replace with an inlined function  that multiplies the number by itself. This has not been put into the maths library because the use of the sq() function is peculiar to the autocode generated for the EKF and an inlined function was desired.

9bfc11b660 EKF: Use specific position observation noise when flying without GPS
A larger position uncertainty is required when flying without GPS to reduce tilt attitude estimation errors caused by vehicle manoeuvring. This needs to be tuneable to allow optimisation for different use cases (e.g. outdoor vs indoor).

7de1d39ce4 EKF: Improve use of position and velocity observation noise parameters
Fix bug where noise parameters were not being squared when calculating the observation variance.

2b1e8fe910 EKF: Update tuning parameters
Set conservative defaults as a baseline for tuning
Add a missing parameter for magnetometer observation noise.
Correct error in definition of magnetic heading observations noise (previous parameter defined the variance directly, not the noise).
Scale vertical GPS noise to allow for average EPV to EPH ratio.
Update documentation and display names for consistency.
