ArduCopter: first merge of leonard's accel based altitude controller plus other changes from Randy
...
Changes include:
New low-level get_throttle_accel function takes target acceleration and compares vs earth-frame Z accelerometer values to produce output to motors.
Higher level throttle controllers modified to call new get_throttle_accel controller
Throttle_rate_stabilized controller added which maintains a desired climb/descent rate
Throttle_land controller added - descends using normal auto throttle controller to 10m then descends at 50cm/s
Multiple throttle modes added including landing mode
Land flight mode no longer needs GPS
Throttle cruise maintenance moved to update_throttle_cruise function

Remove Rate I-term reset when throttle stick is on the bottom. This could be very bad for helis since it's plausible to use full downstick while flying.
There is obviously a risk here of building up a false I-term on the ground but this isn't a good solution for that anyway.
Also removed what appears to be some deadwood.
