AP_TECS : Prevent throttle undershoot after climb
...
If the plane was unable to achieve the climb and got significantly below the internal TECS demanded climb profile, the the PD term would be a large value at the top of climb, and would take some time to reduce due to the rate limiter. This meant that the integrator state could be pushed to a very low value and effectively cause the throttle to sit on the lower limit for longer than desired after levelling out.

this allows the TECS controlled pitch limits to be smaller than the
FBWA limits. It is common for a human pilot to want a bit more
discretion over pitch than you want the automatic controller to use

AP_TECS : Reduce tendency to overspeed during climbout
...
The old code relies on the action of the integrator to raise the nose above the minimum pitch angle which depending on the model and the tuning can be too slow to correct. Biasing the pitch angle to climbout minimum will reduce the taken before an overspeed condition is corrected.

This fixes a bug in the feed-forward throttle that prevented the bank to throttle compensation from working properly during descents.
It also adds bank to throttle compensation to the non-airspeed sensor throttle algorithm.
