a4c099feaa waf: create program groups for main products
Currently we need to build a different binary for each type of copter frame.
This is a preparation for setting all those binaries to a group called
"copter". We create the groups for the rest of the main products for
consistency.

c837fbca2f Plane: 3/3 new param TECS_LAND_SRC for Land Sink Rate Change
// @Description: When zero, the flare sink rate (TECS_LAND_SINK) is a fixed sink demand. With this enabled the flare sinkrate will increase/decrease the flare sink demand as you get further beyond the LAND waypoint. Has no effect before the waypoint. This value is added to TECS_LAND_SINK proportional to distance traveled after wp. With an increasing sink rate you can still land in a given distance if you're traveling too fast and cruise passed the land point. A positive value will force the plane to land sooner proportional to distance passed land point. A negative number will tell the plane to slowly climb allowing for a pitched-up stall landing. Recommend 0.2 as initial value.

2e92089ce6 Plane: Reverse Thrust
Reverse thrust for controlled landings, even with much steeper approach slopes. This is achieved by allowing throttle demand to go negative to maintain a target airspeed. A Pre-Flare stage was added, triggered by an altitude, to allow for a slower airspeed just before land. That lower airspeed can be near stall.
