Minlure is a port of ArduPilot to Minnow Board connected to daughter
board. Very few of those were produced and nobody is flying with it.
It served its purpose and all the the improvements to ArduPilot remain
regardless of it not being supported anymore. Now it's just adding
maintenance work with no clear benefit, so pull the plug.

we were getting some uninitialised variables. While it only showed up in
AP_SbusOut, it means we can't be sure it won't happen on other objects,
so safest to remove the approach
Thanks to assistance from Lucas, Peter and Francisco
AP_AHRS_NavEKF doesn't use the rangefinder, it just delegates the
calls to the right estimator.
For libraries/AP_AHRS/examples/AHRS_Test/AHRS_Test.cpp the initialization
order has also been modified to match the order on vehicles. It's more
correct since it passes a reference when EKF2/EKF3 are already
constructed, while thos constructors use a pointer. Ideally these
should be moved to an init() method though, or use a get_instance().
mistake in patch to avoid segfault which enabled
AP_OpticalFlow_Linux instead of AP_OpticalFlow_Onboard.
Store a reference to ahrs in order to execute init later, when
ahrs is initialized.

We currently check examples are buildable with waf which doesn't need
the libraries to be specified in a make.inc file. Having the makefiles
there is misleading since people try to build and realize the build is
broken.
This fixes the initialization for Linux boards using the PX4Flow module.
The problem is that after the conversion to use I2CDevice we now need to
use I2CDeviceManager, which is statically constructed after the vehicle
object.
So, if we try to call hal.i2c_mgr->get_device(), it will call the
get_device() method before the constructor is called and receive a
SIGSEGV:
Program received signal SIGSEGV, Segmentation fault.

This commit adds support for OpticalFlow to MinnowBoardMax trying to
leave the OpticalFlow implementation as generic as it already is.
We had to add some format conversion and software crop to the cameras that
do not have this features.
Onboard Optical flow needs to have access to the ahrs to get
correct gyro values.
Therefore the constructor takes the ahrs as a param like it is done
for other classes that need to have access to these datas
num_errors should be used to detect bad bus transfers, not if we
actually read something. Since we are using i2c_sem->take_nonblocking()
failing here is more likely if the bus is shared.
We pass "sizeof(i2c_integral_frame)" to hal.i2c->readRegisters(). Since
we have a padding in i2c_integral_frame we actually read 3 bytes more
than we should. Add PACKED to the struct so this is fixed.
i2c_frame doesn't have a padding (or hole) so there isn't this problem,
but since it's also used to calculate the frame size, use PACKED there
too.
Most of AP_Progmem is already gone so we can stop including it in most
of the places. The only places that need it are the ones using
pgm_read_*() APIs.
In some cases the header needed to be added in the .cpp since it was
removed from the .h to reduce scope. In those cases the headers were
also reordered.
Now variables don't have to be declared with PROGMEM anymore, so remove
them. This was automated with:
git grep -l -z PROGMEM | xargs -0 sed -i 's/ PROGMEM / /g'
git grep -l -z PROGMEM | xargs -0 sed -i 's/PROGMEM//g'
The 2 commands were done so we don't leave behind spurious spaces.
AVR-specific places were not changed.
The PSTR is already define as a NOP for all supported platforms. It's
only needed for AVR so here we remove all the uses throughout the
codebase.
This was automated with a simple python script so it also converts
places which spans to multiple lines, removing the matching parentheses.
