This abstracts the names for LED on/off (due to the different wiring
of LEDs on APM1 and purple), and adds the needed config defines for
the two hardware types
Tuning - added ability to modify altitude (position, not rate) controller
TradHeli - Fairly large change to how throttle is scaled and collective moves.
this ensures we never block while writing a MAVLink message to a
serial port, by checking the number of available bytes in the serial
transmit buffer and deferring any message that would cause a blocking
write.
This should prevent the main loop from clagging up due to excessive
telemetry data being sent

moved ground start to first arming
added ground start flag
moved throttle_integrator to 50hz loop
CAMERA_STABILIZER deprecated - now always on
renamed current logging bit mask to match APM
added MA filter to PID - D term
Adjusted PIDs based on continued testing and new PID filter
added MASK_LOG_SET_DEFAULTS to match APM
moved some stuff out of ground start into system start where it belonged
Added slower Yaw gains for DCM when the copter is in the air
changed camera output to be none scaled PWM
fixed bug where ground_temperature was unfiltered
shortened Baro startup time
fixed issue with Nav_WP integrator not being reset
RTL no longer yaws towards home
Circle mode for flying a 10m circle around the point where it was engaged. - Not tested at all! Consider Circle mode as alpha.

this saves a little bit of code by moving the calculation of the
default log bitmask to compile time from runtime
(merge from APM)

Before: -> After
Stabilize P –> Stabilize P (Use NG values, or 8.3 x the older AC2 value)
Stabilize I –> Stabilize I (Stays same value)
Stabilize D –> Rate P (Stays same value)
–> Rate I (new)
Added a new value – an I term for rate. The old stabilization routines did not use this term. Please refer to the config.h file to read more about the new PIDs.
Added framework for using DCM corrected Accelerometer rates. Code is commented out for now.
Added set home at Arming.
Crosstrack is now a full PID loop, rather than just a P gain for more control.
Throttle now slews when switching out of Alt hold or Auto modes for less jarring transitions
Sonar and Baro PIDs are now combined into a throttle PID Yaw control is completely re-written.
Added Octa_Quad support - Max
git-svn-id: https://arducopter.googlecode.com/svn/trunk@2836 f9c3cf11-9bcb-44bc-f272-b75c42450872
new Loiter PIDs
tuned down control on standard frame
shunk the mixing range for sonar from 3 meters to 2 meters
added framework for Guided mode - not tested!
removed pitch and roll deadzone
decoupled SIMPLE mode from LOITER PIDs
Synced Mavlink with APM
Logs report correct WP number now.
disabled Sonar spike filter.
