* refactored uncommanded descend quadchute
- use fixed altitude error threshold
- compute error relative to higest altitude the vehicle has achieved
since it has flown below the altitude reference (setpoint)
* disabled altitude loss quadchute by default
* altitude loss quadchute: added protection against invalid local z

- ArmingStatus DroneCAN message STATUS field is only set to true based on
arming_status.armed
- Cannode prearm state is set to true always when ArmingStatus DroneCan
message is received
- Instead we disable interrups on Nuttx where needed
- No lock is held during param export. Params can be changed
concurrently and we rely on the fact that another export will be
triggered in that case.
5s is a more reasobale time for tailsitters, which rely differently on this param
than other VTOL types. Tailsitters will ramp the pitch up withing this time,
while for other VTOLS types its only the max transitiont time.

This is now using the advanced lift drag plugin.
The important step was to enable airmode for yaw, otherwise yaw gets
saturated at low throttle and we can barely roll.
The other trick was to raise airspeed a little bit to avoid operating
too much at the lower end of throttle where control authority is low.

- re-enable once the estimator selector respects configured mag
priority (at least initially) or is otherwise able to automatically
prefer an external mag over internal
- for SITL disabled because the full matrix of esitmator instances
(IMUs X mags) was too many topics for logger currently

Transitions in Stabilized mode are done manually, the pilot controls the pitch angle
and if it's above the threshold the transition is declared finished (plus airspeed
check for front transition). Thus we can't have fixed thresholds but need to link
them to the actual max pitch angle in Stabilized mode.

We currently fuse 0 as airspeed rate measurement, and thus simply low-pass
filter the airspeed measurements. Testing has shown that the current default
on the airspeed rate measurement noise is set to low, and thus the airspeed
mesurement is filtered too much.

A VTOL plane in MC mode has no yaw setpoint during takeoff because of
weather-vane. To align for the front transition, the yaw target jumps
and caused a step in the controller, making it reach saturation.
With this commit, the previous yaw setpoint is set to the current yaw
when no yaw setpoint is sent in order to create a smooth yaw trajectory
starting at the current orientation when yaw target is suddenly finite.
The yawspeed filter also now contains the yaw speed instead of dyaw in
order to prevent chattering due to dt jitter.
