- initial frequency peak tracking SNR increased from 10->15 db
- after initial detection the threshold decreases to SNR 5db
- gyro_fft large method refactored into smaller pieces
- sensors/vehicle_angular_velocity: dynamic notch FFT make sample rate
check a percentage and relax lower bound safety threshold
Using mixers on the IO side had a remote benefit of being able to
override all control surfaces with a radio remote on a fixed wing.
This ended up not being used that much and since the original design
10 years ago (2011) we have been able to convince ourselves that the
overall system stability is at a level where this marginal benefit,
which is not present on multicopters, is not worth the hazzle.

- change default FFT length (1024 -> 512)
- this doubles the update rate because half the number of samples are required for each
- decrease number of peaks (4 -> 3)
- so far 3 seems to be sufficient on most vehicles
- increase median filter window (3 -> 5)
- decrease SNR requirement (likely needs to be configurable)
- always check with state machine before reboot/shutdown
- respect BOARD_HAS_POWER_CONTROL (shutdown from command, low battery, power button)
- px4_shutdown_request add optional delay and always execute from HPWORK
- px4_shutdown_request split out px4_reboot_request
* MC_HTE: unitialize with hover_thrust parameter
* MC_HTE: constrain hover thrust setter between 0.1 and 0.9
* MC_HTE: integrate with land detector and velocity controller
* MCHoverThrustEstimator: Always publish an estimate even when not fusing measurements. This is required as the land detector and the position controller need to receive a hover thrust value.
* MC_HTE: use altitude agl threshold to start the estimator
local_position.z is relative to the origin of the EKF while dist_bottom
is above ground

- this is one of the last pieces of the system that still depend on DriverFramework
- add new SIM_GPS_NOISE_X parameter for optionally increasing the GPS noise multiplier (was previously a gpssim command line option)
- add SIM_x_BLOCK parameters to block sensor publication
- SIM_GPS_BLOCK
- SIM_ACCEL_BLOCK
- SIM_GYRO_BLOCK
- SIM_MAG_BLOCK
- SIM_BARO_BLOCK
- SIM_DPRES_BLOCK
This new airspeed module does:
-runns an airspeed validator for every airspeed sensor present, which checks measurement validity and estimates an airspeed scale
-selects another airspeed sensor if for the current one a failure is detected
-estimates airspeed with groundspeed-windspeed if no valid airspeed sensor is present
-outputs airspeed_validated topic

- move posix-configs/SITL/init/{rcS,10016_iris,6011_typhoon_h480} to ROMFS/px4fmu_common/init.d-posix
allows for easier unification, only one symlink is required.
- rcS: add AUTOCNF support. Update scripts to match with behavior of PX4
master (parameter values, some sitl driver got removed)
- add alias to allow 'set variable value' syntax in scripts to px4-alias.sh
- use px4_getopt
- use separate argument for the test_data directory
- append PATH from within the px4 binary: this simplifies the usage
w/o the sitl_run.sh script.
- add 'source px4-alias.sh' to all existing sitl startup scripts
- move sitl mixers to ROMFS/px4fmu_common/mixers-sitl
makes it easier to use existing mixers and sitl-specific ones.
- remove unused rcS_gazebo_delta_wing
- move to ModuleBase
- strip down to PWM 8 and 16 modes only
- remove all dead code
- implement missing pwm ioctls (current value, rates, etc)
- default rate 50Hz -> 400Hz
