- allow effectiveness matrix to select control allocator method
(desaturation algorithm)
- add actuator_servos publication
- add support for multiple matrices (for vtol)
- add updateSetpoint callback method to actuator effectiveness to allow it
to manipulate the actuator setpoint after allocation
- handle motor stopping & reversal
- add control surfaces & tilt servos
- handle standard vtol + tiltrotor
- rename MC rotors params & class to be more generically usable
- fixes and enables ActuatorEffectivenessRotorsTest
This fixes a case where the px4 startup is not stopped when the
px4 process is killled using -SIGKILL against the px4 deamon.
In that case, the currently executing command/client is killed
and properly shutting down with result -1, however, the next command
is started anyway.
This means that the next time we try to run the simulation we get a
"PX4 daemon already running for instance 0" error and PX4 doesn't start
properly.
By adding exit on error, we properly exit in the case where the startup
script gets stopped/killed.
Remove params from airframe configs that are just set again
to the param default value or to the value that is
specified in the mc_default, fw_default or vtol_default.

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.

I don't think we should be broadcasting by default as we haven't done
that in the past. This suddenly spams the network with a lot of
messages, and leads to confusing situations in offices where there are
multiple PX4 SITL and QGC intances are open.
Previously, we did not set a remote port which meant that the default
remote port 14550 was used. This meant that the mavlink instance
talking to the gimbal was interfering with the connection to the ground
station (on 14550).
