This also enables precision landing in landing mode, not just during
RTL.
This required an additional fix during the horizontal approach. It seems
like the z setpoint is not set when landing, so we can't blindly use
that setpoint but rather need to keep the altitude.
Currently only precision landing is using the
LandingTargetEstimator and it is a waste to have it
running in the background all the time. With this change
the estimator is only started once the precision landing
flight task is activated, and stopped when the flight
task is deactivated.
This switches from attitude_estimator_q to EKF2 which should now work
without mag when the params are set to SYS_HAS_MAG = 0 and
EKF2_IMU_CTRL = 7 to enable gravity fusion.

- Add the possibility in the parser to replace the defines made in the current file with their argument (includes are not supported)
- Add the possibility for the parser to parse int argument with bitwise shift operators
- 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.

- remove deprecated actuator_controls[INDEX_LANDING_GEAR]
- remove dead code in mc rate controller that used to prevent it from being retracted
on the ground (anyway had no effect as it only affected the actuator_control[LANDING_GEAR]
which wasn't sent to the control allocation)
- for VTOLs handle deployment/retraction of landing gear in AUTO as a MC (retract if
more than 2m above ground, deploy if WP is a landing WP), plus additionally when transition
flight task is called (ALTITUDE mode and higher)
- for FW in AUTO: add logic in FW Position Controller, depending on waypoint type mainly
- manual landing gear settings always come through (a manual command overrides a previous
auto command, and vice-versa)

Tiltrotor_extra_controls also contains collective thrust beside collective tilt, as passing a 3D
thrust setpoint vector beside the tilt is not feasible.

* Changed the method of checking and setting the server file lock on Posix to avoid conditions where the server can indicate that it is running but still hasn't finished it's initialization
- always publish esc_status
- when enabled via MODAL_IO_VLOG param, enable actuator debug output
- for modal_io commands, use ESC HW ID values instead of motor number for easier use
- publish esc_status message for command line commands
- Uncommented the code that fills in the cmdcount and power fields in the esc_status topic
