- As it is always only used for the vehicle command ack message
- It was a duplicate, hence making it error prone for maintainment
- The uORB message comments were updated to make the relationship with
the MAVLink message / enum definitions clear
If the capture GPIO is exposed to a signal with high frequency changes, a lot of
interrupts are scheduled and the handling of these call can worst-case
starve flight critical processes leading to a loss of control. Since camera capture
is not flight critical, we now give up the capture
functionality and stop the interrupts to prevent the starvation of other processes.
The existing implementation has about 100ms difference to a reference clock. With the changes this error less than 25us.
- Use sensor_gps messages with hrt timestamps as RTC reference and not the system realtime clock. The PPS interrupt can then be aligned with the GPS clock system.
- Keep fallback based on system RTC when no PPS pulse was captured
When using an FMU channel as PPS capture GPIO, the rtc_edge_time is now set as well. The delay between actual capture and callback is compensated with the elapsed time of the rtc clock.
The current practice of adding topics to the default set isn't scalable,
as it affects all setups.
By making sure topics are advertised on init, logger can just discard
topics that don't exist. This does not work for all topics, so topics are
specifically marked as optional. It can be extended to more topics later
on though.
This reduces the list of topics by ~35 on a pixracer configured as quad,
and reduces RAM usage by ~1KB.
- create common uORB::PublicationBase
- uORB::PublicationQueued types are now type aliases
- ORB_PRIO use enum type everywhere to avoid accidental misuse
- PX4Accelerometer/PX4Gyroscope/etc driver libs explicitly advertise on construction, unadvertise on destruction. This is a workaround for any potential issues that might appear when accel/gyro cdev and uORB indexing doesn't align.
and remove the px4_ prefix, except for px4_config.h.

Transitional headers for submodules are added (px4_{defines,log,time}.h)
* adds a work_queue systemcmd that will bring a tree view of all active work queues and work items
* WorkQueues now track attached WorkItems and will shutdown when the last WorkItem is detached
