Ifdefed out deadcode in position_estimator_inav_main.c as the
deadcode does not compile for qurt.
Added fixes to get a successful build for posix-arm and qurt targets.
Removed CLOCK_REALTIME def from px4_time.h for qurt and removed unused
variables in att_est_q and mc_att_control.

The simulator was changed to publish the sensor data that is read
by the sensors module when the -p flag is passed.

Since the PX4 code uses both px4_task and pthread APIs,
px4_getpid() must be save to call from either context.
On posix, this means we have to always return the pthread ID.
Reverted simulator change of pthread to px4_task
There may have been side effects if this was build for a target that
has process/task scoped file descriptors. It is now safe to call
px4_getpid() from this pthread context with this change for the
posix build for px4_getpid().

The simulator was using pthread APIs directly so calls to px4_getpid()
would fail since the task ID was not known. Changed simulator to use
px4_task_spawn_cmd.

- wait for first message from jMAVSim
before sending data
- publish raw rc data coming from PIXHAWK (temporary)
- send some interesting messages to jMAVSim
- prepare sensor data for sim drivers to read
The existing orb_advert_t use thoughout the code sometimes tries
to treat it as a file descriptor and there are checks for < 0
and ::close calls on orb_advert_t types which is an invalid use
of an object pointer, which is what orb_advert_t really is.
Initially I had changed the -1 initializations to 0 but it was
suggested that this should be nullptr. That was a good recommendation
but the definition of orb_advert_t had to change to void * because
you cannot initialize a uintptr_t as nullptr.

QuRT does not support UDP so moved the mavlink specific code
to a new file that is not built for the qurt target

Simulator can work as before with -s flag or with Roman's additions to
publish the sensors combined topic using -p flag.

Simulator listens for UDP input data at port 9876.
Data is for now comma separated. Not yet connected to the various sim
classes: accelsim, gyrosim, magsim.
Barometer measurements not yet supported.

PX4 uses NuttX data structures throughout so those data structures
were preserved and used to implement high and low priority queues.
A unit test for the work queues was added.
The polling rate of the queues are set in px4_config.h in
CONFIG_SCHED_WORKPERIOD. The units are milliseconds.

The previous name implied some kind of daemon. AppState is
aggregated state of an application's running state and interfaces
to request app termination, and check app state.

Uncomment the following line in setup.mk and comment out the line above
to enable the Linux build.
export PX4_TARGET_OS = linux
The build uses the clang compiler by default. The final bundled executable
is mainapp located in:
Build/linux_default.build/mainapp
When you run mainapp it will provide a list of the built-in apps. You can
type in the commands to run such as:
hello_main start
Because the Linux build is threaded and does not support tasks or processes,
it cannot call errx, exit() _exit(), etc. It also requires unique scoped
variables to test if a thread is running or if an application should exit.
The px4::AppMgr class was added in px4_app.h for this purpose. The
hello sample app demonstrates how this is used.
