AP_Param: fixed setting of CAM_P_G in ArduCopter
...
the variable CAM_P_G has the same prefix as the CAM_P group. We want
to allow for parameters having a common prefix with a group, so we
need to keep searching after we've found a group that matches the
prefix

Based on Jani's latest logs I've made two tweaks to alt hold.
...
The first is to remove the filter on the throttle output for alt_hold.
The second was to open up the constraint on climb rate. This is to deal with larger than expected disturbances causing altitude changes.

allow MAG_ENABLE to be changed in flight
...
this disables the compass in DCM if MAG_ENABLE is changed in
flight. Without this we would use a fixed yaw once the compass is
disabled
This also makes sure we don't pass the compass to DCM till we have
done a read. This ensures we have a good compass fix for the initial
DCM heading

Compass: added COMPASS_LEARN and COMPASS_USE parameters
...
these allow you to control if the compass should be used for yaw and
if it should learn its offsets. This is useful for locking in compass
offsets once they are confirmed to be good, and for learning offsets
without using them in flights.
The default is to behave the same as previously, which is
COMPASS_LEARN=1 and COMPASS_USE=1

ACM: don't pass a gps pointer to DCM
...
after discussion with Randy, we don't want ArduCopter to fall back to
GPS for yaw when the compass becomes unhealthy. So we shouldn't pass
the gps object to the DCM code at all.

wait till we reach 1m/s before we reset _have_initial_yaw. This
prevents us continually resetting the DCM matrix if our ground speed
is close to 3m/s.

DCM: use rotation_matrix_from_euler() to calculate initial yaw
...
When we first get a compass reading or we first start motion we need
to setup the DCM matrix with the right yaw. This uses
rotation_matrix_from_euler() to get a DCM matrix corresponding to our
current roll/pitch, but with the correct yaw
