* FW attitude controller, FW position controller and VTOL attitude controller subscribe to airspeed_validated topic
* add possibility to switch off the airspeed valid checks
* remove airspeed valid checks from commander
* clean up of VTOL transition logic
* Airspeed Selector: remove dynamic allocation of airspeed validators (depending on number of connected sensors) but do it statically for the maximum number allowed. Check for number of connected sensors not only during start up, but always when vehicle is disarmed.
* Airspeed Selector: change work queue from lp to att_pos_ctrl as this module is safety-critical
* add airspeed selector to px4_fmu-v2 defaults
* PreFlightCheck: remove unused reportFailures flag
* Commander: pull all pre flight checks together on the PreFlightCheck class
* PreFlightCheck: separate checks into their own files
This fixes the case where the mixer_module would subscribe and use its
own test_motor publication which was created only to make sure the
topic is advertised and subsequent updates will work properly.
This happened in SITL lockstep because the timestamp would be 0 at the
very beginning, and hence elapsed time would be 0 as well.
This lead to an actuator publication which would then get lockstep out
of sync causing poll errors on the Gazebo side.
* Use position instead of last setpoint
This calculates the target velocities better taking into account disturbances along
the flight route. Previously entry angles and more were calculated assuming the flight path
originates directly from the direction of the previous waypoint. This corrects this assumption
to instead make the direction come from the vehicle location.
* Allow to specify a final speed given a braking distance.
This is to allow planning to not stop at a waypoint, but instead
to reach the waypoint while maintaining a certain velocity
* Updated src/lib/matrix
* Account for speed at target when determining constraints
* Separate constraints into x/y components
* Use setpoint position, not vehicle position
* Fix whitespace, add documentation
and remove the px4_ prefix, except for px4_config.h.

Transitional headers for submodules are added (px4_{defines,log,time}.h)
- move most orb to uORB::Publication and uORB::Subscription
- update legacy message handling (warn to PX4_INFO, PX4_WARN, PX4_ERR)
- add perf counters
- sensors/mag support newer `uavcan::equipment::ahrs::MagneticFieldStrength2` message
- sensors/gps support `uavcan::equipment::gnss::Auxiliary` for hdop and vdop
- sensors delete obsolete ioctl and read methods
- use PublicationMulti for actuator_outputs and esc_reports (to coexist with other output modules)
- add GNSS parameter metadata (parameters_injected.xml)

b38458c 2019-10-10 bresch - Terrain estimator: formatting and remove redundant comments
0aef0ed 2019-10-10 bresch - terrain_estimator: remove dead code. Since the terrain estimator is constantly reset on ground, it is not necessary anymore to fuse fake measurements on ground if the range measurements are bad.
370e04e 2019-10-03 bresch - terrain_est: Continuously reset terrain height on ground using known clearance. This is the best estimate as we should not rely on a distance sensor while on the ground. This also helps when the drone is carried over as it avoids starting with a crazy downward distance for optical flow scaling.

4e946d5 2019-09-04 RomanBapst - implemented synthesized magnetometer Z measurement - calculate a theoretical value based on the knowledge of the direction and strength of the magnetic field vector and X/Y sensor measurements - needs knowledge about location on earth to work
The constrainAbs function was not prioritizing the minimum value
that produces the autocontinue behaviour. This caused zig-zag
paths when the waypoints were almost -but not exactly- aligned.
