Andrew Tridgell b53496d470 AP_AHRS: choose the best accelerometer at each drift correction step
this greatly reduces the impact of aliasing on accelerometers by
choosing the accelerometer that produces the smallest error term in
DCM. The difference can be quite dramatic on the Pixhawk.

Andrew Tridgell 0b45d2bc06 AP_AHRS: removed the AHRS_GPS_DELAY parameter
the best value has turned out to be 1, and tweaking it has not turned
out to be useful, so this simplifies the code in preparation for
adding the anti-aliasing handling with multiple accelerometers

Jonathan Challinger f321a5f241 AP_AHRS: Change airspeed_estimate to const in children of AP_AHRS
Allows roll/pitch controllers to use DCM's airspeed estimate. Thanks to Kevin Hester for assistance in finding this.

Andrew Tridgell 25ef0d5a7b AP_AHRS: don't allow get_velocity_NED() and get_relative_position_NED() without EKF

Andrew Tridgell 6f1cee6406 AP_AHRS: fixed position estimate with 2D fix or low satellite count
we should still use the GPS for position fixes when we have a low
number of satellites, but we should stop using it for velocity
estimates and attitude correction.

Andrew Tridgell 8459da202c AP_AHRS: prevents compass flyaways for plane and rover
this switches to the GPS for yaw if the compass has dragged us off by
more than 45 degrees from the GPS heading, and the wind speed is less
than 80% of the ground speed.
