38239c652a Copter: ch8 aux switch
Ch8 can be used as an aux switch like ch7.  Has all the same options as

98732ae4e8 Copter: remove redundant init of controllers when auto is started
individual do_* commands are responsible for setting roll-pitch, yaw and
throttle modes.  Removing this redundant setting of the controllers
removes the short period (10th second max) where loiter and waypoint
controller's desired roll and pitch were used even before the
controllers have been run once.

H-quads are like X quads but the motors spin in the opposite direction.
