- respect new EKF2_EV_CTRL parameter for VPOS usage
- EV hgt rotate EV position before usage (there's often a small offset in frames)
- EV hgt reset use proper EV velocity body frame
- try to keep EV hgt and EV vel state machines consistent
- small incremental piece of https://github.com/PX4/PX4-Autopilot/pull/19128
- first version of IMU driver for the VOXL 2 platform (Qurt)
- this is a customized version of the Invensense ICM42688P driver, it is currently in the VOXL 2 board directory
- don't store unnecessary IMU copy in class, pass it through where required
- remove custom pi constants
- remove unused fields from ahrs_ekf_gsf (vel_NE, fuse_gps, accel_dt)
- explicitly initialize everything in header
- apply PX4 code style
- set GPS velocity before yaw estimator update, not after
Multiple agents can connect to the same client
For sitl builds, if the intance number is different from zero,
XRCE_DDS_KEY is set to the instance number and
the microdds_client is automatically started
with namespace
px4_"instance_number"
and udp port 8888
If the instance number is equal to zero
XRCE_DDS_KEY is left untouched and
the microdds_client is automatically started
without namespace
and udp port 8888

The partecipant name is modified into

* VTOL: take home_position into account for ground clearance
For approximating distance to ground in case there is no valid distance sensor
data, subtract the home position altitude from the local position altitude.

Instead of always starting with instance 0 (potentially an internal
mag), first take the current sensor as reference to compare the other
ones against it.
The issue is that otherwise we can end up in a
situation where a switch occurs because the currently used sensor isn't
much better than a sensor with a lower index: because the selected one
isn't much better, we cannot "fail-over" to it and get stuck on another
sensor, triggering a fail-over.
- WelfordMeanVector now computes covariance
- use Kahan summation for Welford mean (but continue using float32 for actual mean, etc)
- WelfordMean and WelfordMeanVector handle initial value and count roll over
- Welford mean count rollover at 16 bit max to prevent numerical issues and shift weight to newer samples
- sensors/vehicle_imu: update Welford mean usage (now simplified with resets removed)
- fix vehicle_imu_status accel var, now properly rotated with full covariance matrix
- gyro_calibration: update Welford mean usage
This is fully backwards compatible: If the throttle trim is set to
the minimum then it's the legacy calibration and gets
interpreted such that there is no trim and behavior remains as before.
If the trim is set to a different value than the minimum then it gets
used like with all other channels which was unsupported before.
In review it was requested to have a different name for
manual_control_setpoint.z because of the adjusted range.
I started to investigate what naming is most intuitive and found
that most people recognize the stick axes as roll, pitch, yaw, throttle.
It comes at no surprise because other autopilots
and APIs seem to share this convention.
While changing the code I realized that even within the code base
the axes are usually assigned to a variable with that name or
have comments next to the assignment clarifying the axes
using these names.
To be consistent with all other axes of stick input and avoid future
rescaling confusion.
Note: for the MAVLink message 69 MANUAL_CONTROL it's using the full range
according to the message specs now [-1000,1000].
