- replace float32[21] URT covariances with smaller dedicated position/velocity/orientation variances (the crossterms are unused, awkward, and relatively costly)
- these are easier to casually inspect and more representative of what's actually being used currently and reduces the size of vehicle_odometry_s quite a bit
- ekf2: add new helper to get roll/pitch/yaw covariances
- mavlink: receiver ODOMETRY handle more frame types for both pose (MAV_FRAME_LOCAL_NED, MAV_FRAME_LOCAL_ENU, MAV_FRAME_LOCAL_FRD, MAV_FRAME_LOCAL_FLU) and velocity (MAV_FRAME_LOCAL_NED, MAV_FRAME_LOCAL_ENU, MAV_FRAME_LOCAL_FRD, MAV_FRAME_LOCAL_FLU, MAV_FRAME_BODY_FRD)
- mavlink: delete unused ATT_POS_MOCAP stream (this is just a passthrough)

- all sources of optical flow publish sensor_optical_flow
- sensor_optical_flow is aggregated by the sensors module, aligned with integrated gyro, and published as vehicle_optical_flow

If we receive gimbal_device_attitude_status by mavlink we should not
re-send it as we are already supposed to be forwarding mavlink traffic
from the gimbal to the ground station.
- camera_trigger module always publishes the camera_trigger msg (independent of the camera feedback)
- Use camera_trigger msg and set the feedback flag
- Subscribing modules determine if the message is relevant based on the feedback message
- remove GPS failsafe mode
- for VTOL: transition to hover in Descend (unless NAV_FORCE_VT is not set)

By adding the sequence number we can avoid double triggering due to
command retransmissions. This is according to the mavlink spec for
MAV_CMD_IMAGE_START_CAPTURE.
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.
