This adds explicit handling for the few things we want to allow through a MAVLink instance dedicated to a gimbal/(camera) payload as per the MAVLink gimbal mode configuration.
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.

da3223ff 2024-06-13 Thomas Frans - gps: add status and integrity information (#2110)
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.
* usb: Added parameter to enable always starting mavlink on USB.
Refactored cdcacm_init into a module and added a paramter to allow always starting mavlink on
USB, also added a paramter to choose the mode. The current default behavior is to wait and listen
for data on USB and auto-detect the protocol (mavlink, nsh, ublox). This results in the mavlink
stream not starting until something else on the mavlink network sends a packet first. The new
default behavior is to always start mavlink.
Added parameters
MAV_USB_ENABLE -- default 1 (always start mavlink on USB)
MAV_USE_MODE -- default 3 (onboard)
* added 3 retries for opening serial port in mavlink, removed sleep before sercon
* added DRIVERS_CDCACM_AUTOSTART to ark-v6x default.px4board
* added CONFIG_DRIVERS_CDCACM_AUTOSTART=y to default.px4board for boards with CONFIG_CDCACM in their nsh/defconfig
* format
* remove PGA460 from COMMON_DISTANCE_SENSOR to save flash
* remove LIS2MDL from COMMON_MAGNETOMETER to save flash
* disable CONFIG_DRIVERS_CDCACM_AUTOSTART for fmu-v5 protected.px4board
* moved and renamed parameters, removed mode logic in mavlink
* changed parameter names, added mode none
* remove parameters from mavlink
Regression from https://github.com/PX4/PX4-Autopilot/pull/23043
Also avoids a race condition by making sure the command ack is handled
before sending out the mavlink message (in case an external component
reacts immediately to the mavlink message).
- topic update was checked twice in the same loop and thus
the second time the topic would never indicate to have updated

- warn about full traffic conflict buffer at 1/60hz.
- add conflict expiry for buffer.
- use only events for buffer full warning. mavlink_log_critical no longer needed.
- use icao address for conflict warnings id, stop using uas_id. UTM_GLOBAL_POSITION assumed deprecated.
- stop spamming when buffer is full
- fix warning wording if buffer is full.
- remove UTM_GLOBAL_POSITION
Fixes failing unit test:
* [adsbTest] Reduce conflict timestamps - not enough time has passed in ci
- failed ci output - (passes locally with make tests TESTFILTER=AdsbConflict)
- Timestamp: 6000000000
- Time now: 457720038
- Time since timestamp: 0
- Old Conflict warning expired: 0
- --------------------
- adsb_conflict._traffic_state 0
- ../../src/lib/adsb/AdsbConflictTest.cpp:244: Failure
- Value of: adsb_conflict._traffic_state == TRAFFIC_STATE::REMIND_CONFLICT
- Actual: false
- Expected: true
Previously uORB queue size was an awkward mix of runtime configurable (at advertise or IOCTL before allocate), but effectively static with all queue size settings (outside of test code) actually coming from the topic declaration (presently ORB_QUEUE_LENGTH in the .msg). This change finally resolves the inconsistency making the queue size fully static.
Additionally there were some corner cases that the muorb and orb communicator implementation were not correctly handling. This PR provides fixes for those issues. Also correctly sets remote queue lengths now based on the topic definitions.
* Made setting of uORB topic queue size in based on topic definition only
* Fixes to the ModalAI muorb implementation
* Removed libfc sensor from format checks
* msg/TransponderReport.msg ORB_QUEUE_LENGTH 8->16 (was set to higher in AdsbConflict.h
