* battery: make time remaining estimation dependent on level flight characteristis for FW
* battery: fix that FW flight is also correctly detected when vehicle_status is not updated

* FixedwingPositionControl: Move constant to header file
* flight phase estimation: use tecs height rate reference to check for level flight

When the CPU load monitor is started while already running, then the
idle thread last_times[0] is reset to the last 1 second, rather than
since when the CPU load monitor was last started. The remaining threads
are not impacted, since their last_times[i] is reset to zero here.
This results in the idle thread having a lower than real CPU load, with
the remaining CPU time being wrongly attributed as scheduler load.
- fake_pos only if at rest or tilt variances becomes large
- fake pos: don't run when grav fusion is enabled
- gravity fusion enabled by default
- gravity: only fuse when accel norm and lpf norm are consistent

Reduces flash usage by ~16KB.
- compress formats at build-time into a single string with all formats
- then at runtime iteratively decompress using

Increased size for ORB_ID from uint8_t to uint16_t
Created a type: orb_id_size_t = uint16_t.
There are still a couple of places where the size
of the ORB_ID is assumed to be less than 16-bits.
The places that I have found are commented regarding
this and can be found with a search on orb_id_size_t.
- 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.

- reduce boost priority to PX4_WQ_HP_BASE - 6
- add cli command 'trigger_watchdog' to manually trigger watchdog
- add perf counters when triggering watchdog
- reduce top measurement to 300ms
- restore priorities after 1.5s
There are precautions in case the SD card code itself has a busy-loop.
- move EV yaw and EV position to new state machines
- EV yaw and EV pos now configured via EKF2_EV_CTRL (migrated from EKF2_AID_MASK)
- new EV position offset estimator to enable EV position while GPS position is active (no more EV pos delta fusion)
- yaw_align now strictly means north (no more rotate external vision aid mask)
- automatic switching between EV yaw, and yaw align north based on GPS quality
Completely detach the steering wheel logic from the yaw controller (beside using the
same manual stick input in a manual flight mode).

- vehicle_angular_velocity and vehicle_angular_acceleration are produced together from the same input data, consumed together, and share the the same metadata (timestamps)
- individually these topics each have 16 bytes of metadata (2 timestamps) for 12 bytes of data (x,y,z float32)
