* heater: add multi-instance support, refactor parameter handling, remove legacy params file
This change introduces multi-instance heater support to allow independent temperature control for multiple IMUs.
Main changes:
- Add support for multiple heater instances
- Refactor parameter handling to use per-instance parameters
- Remove the legacy parameter file and migrate to the updated parameter structure
This improves scalability and makes heater configuration consistent across setups with multiple sensors.
* Refactor heater configuration across multiple boards
- Updated heater GPIO definitions to introduce a new naming convention for better clarity and consistency.
- Replaced `GPIO_HEATER_OUTPUT` with `GPIO_HEATER1_OUTPUT` and adjusted the corresponding output enable macros.
- Changed parameter names from `SENS_TEMP_ID` to `HEATER1_IMU_ID` in various board default configurations to reflect the new heater setup.
- Ensured all affected board configurations are updated to maintain functionality with the new heater definitions.
* heater: fix missing HEATER1_OUTPUT_EN control
* heater: fix more missing HEATER1_OUTPUT_EN control
* heater: tidy config, docs, and instance handling
- Remove unused controller period member and use CONTROLLER_PERIOD_DEFAULT
- Improve HEATER${i}_IMU_ID description and instance-related logging/behavior
- Add a guard when HEATER_NUM exceeds HEATER_MAX_INSTANCES
Note: drop intermediate/reverted change around the 'celsius' spelling.
* heater: refactor constructor to remove unused parameter and add instance name function
- Remove unused ModuleParams argument from Heater constructor
- Add heater_instance_name() helper to provide per-instance work queue task names
- Use instance-specific parameter lookup (HEATER{n}_*) during initialization
Use heater_instance_name() to label each instance (heater_1/2/3) in work queue.
Also drop unused ModuleParams argument from constructor and keep per-instance
parameter handle lookup in initialization.
* format
* board: update GPIO configuration for multiple heater instances, add HEATER_NUM for boards using PX4IO
* heater: update heater control to use HEATER1_OUTPUT_EN when using PX4IO for consistency
* heater: add a TODO for px4io multi-instance
* heater: update missing GPIO_HEATER1_OUTPUT in sky-drones
* heater: fix multiple newlines at EOF (resolve CI check failure)
* heater: switch to PublicationMulti for heater_status and log multi-instance
- Changed _heater_status_pub from Publication to PublicationMulti to support independent per-instance publications without overwriting.
- Updated logged_topics.cpp to use add_optional_topic_multi("heater_status")
This fixes the issue where multiple heater instances were writing to the same heater_status topic, causing data overwriting and incorrect update rates in logs.

The existing disarmed logic already handles disabled outputs
it makes sense to reuse it and not have lockdown handled
differently resulting in unexpeced corner cases.
This removes the duplication with unexpected differences
and allows to consistently handle the output instead of
overriding the output for some specific cases which
leads to unexpected corner cases. E.g. disabled outputs
suddenly outputing PWM in lockdown.
If the output is set to 0 then the FMU had this channel disabled/no function mapped
to it. In that case we do not want to suddenly start outputing failsafe or disarmed
signals.
internal PX4IO safety_off state is removed and replaced with a normal safety button event. From this 'commit' commander is taking care of the PX4IO safety.

- most px4_io-v2 boards have a blue LED that breathes for status
- the pixhawk 2.1 (hex) re-used this blue LED for as an IMU heater (active low), but kept the same board id (so we have to detect at runtime)
- the new cubepilot boards (yellow, orange) inverted the polarity of this heater pin
- untangle the mess slightly so that things we know statically (eg cubepilot cubeorange LEDs and heater polarity) are handled at build time.
- previously an invalid decode would continue to be transferred to the FMU (at 50 Hz) and published to the rest of the system as successfully decoded new RC data
- by only publishing new successful decodes we can more effectively discard invalid data in downstream consumers
This fixes the case where oneshot was enabled with multi-instance pwm_out,
triggering oneshot updates too close to each other and as a result could
lead to spinning motors while disarmed.
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.

It was for example possible that DSM got parsed, and in the next iteration
SBUS got parsed, leading to multiple PX4IO_P_STATUS_FLAGS_RC_ flags set.
input_rc::input_source was then incorrectly set to DSM.
Partially guarding was already done: if SBUS got parsed, DSM and others
were skipped.
The IO will still clear all PX4IO_P_STATUS_FLAGS_RC_* flags on RC loss.
As hardware buttons are not particularly reliable and the user flow is to disable safety then arm, then disarm via software / remote, it makes sense to make the button safety state itself sticky and require it to be reset via software.
This adds the option to limit the rate of change (slew rate) of an output that's mixed by a simple mixer.
To enable it, a positive number has to be added at the end (6th number) of the output scaler line of the mixer,
specifying the min rise time of this output.
E.g. O: 10000 10000 0 -10000 10000 20000 for a rise time of 2s, resp. a max slew rate of 0.5s^-1.

and remove the px4_ prefix, except for px4_config.h.
command to update includes:

Transitional headers for submodules are added (px4_{defines,log,time}.h)
And fix some IO bugs:
- PX4IO_P_STATUS_FLAGS_RAW_PWM was never cleared. This meant that after a
'pwm test' command, normal mixing was not possible anymore.
Fixed by remembering when we are in test mode and not sending
PX4IO_PAGE_CONTROLS during that time. PX4IO_P_STATUS_FLAGS_RAW_PWM is
cleared when PX4IO_PAGE_CONTROLS are received.
- when entering test mode w/o specifying all channels, the other channels
were not set at all, which means they could still be set to values from
a previous test call.
This is fixed by setting all channels to disarmed when entering/leaving
test mode.
The documentation of the thrust model parameter `THR_MDL_FAC` did not
mention both thrust and "PWM" being relative values. Also the use of the
term PWM could be misleading, since the model is applicable to CAN ESCs
as well.
This commit rephrases the user documentation string and a few source
code comments, but no logic changes are made.
