- track accel clipping count per axis
- only set bad_acc_clipping fault_status if at least one axis is
clipping continuously or if all have been clipping at warning level
- Note: this doesn't impact the clipping projections that boost the
accel process noise, pause bias estimation, and skip gravity fusion
on a per sample basis
We had a case where someone took off with an experimental
system with 100% RAM usage on the embedded system
without noticing. This lead to problems during flight.
Since we already have a CPU load check it seems natural
to also check the reported RAM usage.
- new parameter EKF2_LOG_VERBOSE to enable (currently enabled by default)
- force advertise topics immediately (based on EKF2_LOG_VERBOSE and per aid source configuration)
- logger optionally log all estimator topics at minimal rate
When using optical flow for terrain aiding, we cannot assume that the
terrain estimate is valid if flow is fused as is can only be observed
during motion. When no direct observation is available, the terrain is
assumed to be valid if its 1sigma uncertainty is < 10% of the hagl.
Terrain is the state: terrain vertical position
Hagl (height above ground level) is the vertical distance between the
vertical position and the terrain vertical position
* mission: skip a vtol takoff mission item if already in air and a fixed wing
* MissionBase: also skip FW takeoff when already in-air

* mission: use setNextMissionItem to skip vtol takeoff when already in air
* mission: Only skip the VTOL takeoff in air for mission and rtl mission
If flying RTL mission reverse it must still include the takeoff point.

Without this flag the command silently succeeds even though the logs contains
an error. It's much more developer friendly to fail early in case of an error.
The log path is then also shown in the console output.
- MPC_VEL_LP: new velocity first order low pass filter (off by default)
- MPC_VEL_NF_FRQ/MPC_VEL_NF_BW: new velocity notch filter (off by default)
- MPC_VELD_LP: existing velocity derivative low pass filter, but I've dropped the remaining controllib usage
The case where the airframe maintainer wants to enforce a reset to airframe is
not covered anymore with the `param set-default` mechanism. For products based
on PX4 this is still required to ensure proper functionality after a major update.
Having a generic interface over the GPS drivers makes dedicated
functionality for each driver harder. Move the Septentrio driver into
its own module under the `gnss` driver directory, and let it have its
own parameters for only the functionality it requires. This also helps
with adding new features because they only need to be implemented for
the driver that wants it, simplifying testing.
- these are old RC switch configuration parameters that haven't been used for
years, but were hardcoded into old versions of QGC
- RC_MAP_RATT_SW, RC_MAP_POSCTL_SW, RC_MAP_ACRO_SW, RC_MAP_STAB_SW, RC_MAP_MAN_SW deleted

* ist8310: do reset before WHOAMI call
Apparently, the IST8310's WHOAMI register is writeable. Presumably, this
can get corrupted by bus noise. It is only reset if powered off for 30s.
Therefore, we do a reset before doing the WHOAMI.

Compared to GNSS, alternate position observation methods are less accurate
and thus generally not good enough to do airspeed validation with.
Airspeed validation is thus disabled if no GNSS fusion is happening.

* AirspeedValidator: remove additional one second of hysteresis for triggering
innovation checks
- this check already uses an integrator and so adding more delay just makes
log analysis more difficult and does not really add any value
