78b899c72d Add Paparazzi compatibility (#580)
This adds support for the paparazzi autopilot to use this library as EKF.
The header order change has to be done in order to have std.h included to get certain defines at the start of the estimator_interface.h.

3accab1ac5 EKF: protect declination fusion from badly conditioned earth field estimates
Fusion with large initial magnetometer biases errors can result in the the NE earth field states reducing in magnitude and effectively flipping sign.

EKF: Move declination state limiting into a separate function

EKF: Limit NE mag states after each 3-axis mag fusion

EKF: Fix bug in mag field strength look-up scale factor

bd1647a7fb EKF: Rework use of fuseDeclination()
Simplify calling so that it is only called in two ways:
1) Immediately before 3-axis mag fusion if not called since the last earth field covariance reset so that the earth field declination information can be formed.
2) Immediately after 3-axis mag fusion otherwise.

8839e4e1f4 EKF: Don't discard declination certainty information when resuming 3-axis fusion.
In the case where the EKF is switching between 3-axis and heading fusion, off-diagonal elements containing the correlation between N,E  components of the earth field were being lost on each switch event. These elements contained information about the declination uncertainty and should be preserved.

25148e1b45 EKF: Prevent rapid changes in declination estimate after a reset
Ensures that each time the earth field covariance and variance data is reset, that the off-diagonal elements containing earth field declination angle certainty is restored.

ef5a87c1d4 EKF: Rework quaternion yaw reset.
Use a new method that preserves the roll and pitch information and adds the uncertainty for yaw only.
Ensure that correlation information to non-quaternion states is removed when a reset occurs to prevent fusion of subsequent observations (e.g. GPS) causing incorrect yaw.

44200e9649 add GPS drop out case to GPS fusion logic
EKF waits 10s after GPS signal is lost before setting GPS control status flag to false. As the position information given by the alternative position sources drifts from the last GPS position, the controller over corrects.
With this update, the time horizon until GPS control flag set to false is reduced and only alternative position source is used for estimation.

tested with optical flow as position souce
