priseborough 04036d7777 AP_NavEKF : Updated GPS glitch protection logic
This adds new functionality to the detection and compensation of GPS
glitches:

1) A maximum allowable innovation is calculated using the GPS noise
parameter multiplied by the gate, with an additional component allowing
for growth in position uncertainty due to acceleration error since
the last valid measurement
2) Includes per vehicle type values for the acceleration error limit
3) If the innovation length exceeds the maximum allowable, no fusion occurs
4) If no fusion has occurred for long enough such that the position uncertainty
exceeds the maximum set by a per vehicle parameter or a maximum time, an offset
is applied to the GPS data to so that it matches the value predicted by the filter
5) The offset is never allowed to be bigger than 100m
6) The offset is decayed to zero at a rate of 1.0 m/s to allow GPS jumps to
be accommodated gradually
7) The default velocity innovation gate has been tightened up for copter and rover
8) The variance data logging output has been updated to make it more useful

priseborough 45b1a2fa46 AP_NavEKF : Reduce GPS position innovation consistency fail threshold
This patch reduces the maximum acceptable GPS jump from approximately 16 to 8 metres
This will provide copters with more protection for close in loiter situations

Andrew Tridgell e3792f9b26 AP_NavEKF: added a mechanism for per-vehicle-type defaults in EKF 2014-03-26 12:30:17 +11:00
priseborough 17cdac7bc8 AP_NavEKF : Clean up angle and mag field initialisation
This path reduces duplicated code, eliminates unused variables and
causes the earth magnetic field states to be reset when exiting static mode
which will occur every time copter is armed. This enables copters to be
powered on and initialised inside vehicles or houses, without bad earth
field values affecting flight.

Paul Riseborough d83b382e59 AP_NavEKF : Fix variance constraint bug
Constraining variances to a minimum value of 1e-9 was causing problems
with gyro bias and angular accuracy in noisy GPS environments.
Because the constraint is applied after every covariance prediction
and correction, a lower value of 0 is more appropriate.
