* FW attitude controller, FW position controller and VTOL attitude controller subscribe to airspeed_validated topic
* add possibility to switch off the airspeed valid checks
* remove airspeed valid checks from commander
* clean up of VTOL transition logic
* Airspeed Selector: remove dynamic allocation of airspeed validators (depending on number of connected sensors) but do it statically for the maximum number allowed. Check for number of connected sensors not only during start up, but always when vehicle is disarmed.
* Airspeed Selector: change work queue from lp to att_pos_ctrl as this module is safety-critical
* add airspeed selector to px4_fmu-v2 defaults
* PreFlightCheck: remove unused reportFailures flag
* Commander: pull all pre flight checks together on the PreFlightCheck class
* PreFlightCheck: separate checks into their own files
This fixes the battery failsafe for the following corner cases:
- Battery failsafe set to Return but we can't do RTL because we don't
have a global position or home position. In this case we now switch to
Land. Land might end up in Descend in the failsafe state machine
later.
- Battery failsafe set to Land but we can't land because we don't have a
local position. In this case we switch to land anyway and then fall
back to descend in the failsafe state machine later.
The "fix" involves ignoring using the main_state_transition and
implementing the guards in place. This is a hack for now but should
cover the corner case until a more thorough refactor.
The different failsafe state machines have involved over time from
requirements and learnings based on developed solutions and products.
The implementations in various places will need to get consolidated in
the future.
Tested in SITL for Return and Land with and without GPS.
When flying POSCTL and ALTCTL the throttle stick is usually spring
loaded and therefore centered. Therefore, it makes more sense to check
for above center instead of above low.
and remove the px4_ prefix, except for px4_config.h.

Transitional headers for submodules are added (px4_{defines,log,time}.h)
This reverts a previous change because we're not entirely sure about all
implications on various airframes. It makes sense to change this default
after the failsafe state machines have been consolidated and the various
failsafe behaviours are more predictable for all airframes (not just
multicopter).
I propose two changes to the battery failsafes:
1. Remove the return only mode because it means the drone is likely
to crash during RTL. I think this is not expected by users chosing
the option and therefore better not exposed as an option.
2. Make Return/Land the default battery failsafe because it is expected
that a drone does the right thing when battery is low.
Also, this changes the description of the Return/Land behaviour to make
the drop down menu less long and awkward in QGC.
* ekf2: Add FirstOrderLpf and InnovationLpf classes for innovation lowpass filtering
* ekf2: use InnovLpf filter class in preflight checks
* ekf2: move selection of yaw test limit for pre-flight check in function
* ekf2: Move pre-flight checks into separate function
* ekf2: use static constexpr insetead of inline for sq (square) function
* ekf2: Split pre-flight checks in separate functions
Also use the same check for all the innovations:
innov_lpf < test and innov < 2xtest
* ekf2: Add optical flow pre-flight check
* ekf2: Combine FirstOrderLpf and InnovationLpf in single class
* ekf2: check vel_pos_innov when ev_pos is active as well
* ekf2: transform InnovationLpf into a header only library and pass the
spike limit during the update call to avoid storing it here
* ekf2: Static and const cleanup
- set spike_lim constants as static constexpr, set innovation
- set checker helper functions as static
- rename the mix of heading and yaw as heading to avoid confusion
* ekf2: use ternary operator in selectHeadingTestLimit instead of if-else
* ekf2: store intermediate redults in const bool flags. Those will be used for logging
* ekf2: set variable const whenever possible
* ekf2: create PreFlightChecker class that handle all the innovation
pre-flight checks.
Add simple unit testing
Use bitmask instead of general flag to have more granularity
* PreFlightChecker: use setter for the innovations to check instead of sending booleans in the update function
This makes it more scalable as more checks will be added
* ekf: Use booleans instead of bitmask for ekf preflt checks
Rename "down" to "vert"
This adds a flight task to catch the case where we want to do an
emergency descent without GPS but only a baro.
Previously, this would lead to the navigator land class being called
without position estimates which then made the flight tasks fail and
react with a flight task failsafe. This however meant that landed was
never detected and a couple of confusing error messages.
This applies if NAV_RCL_ACT is set to 3 "land".
added and using circuit_breaker_enabled_by_val() where possible instead of circuit_breaker_enabled() which search for cbrk parameters by name, which is extensive process.
