e6e25525bc AP_Param: avoid saving values within 0.01% of the default value

c298d5130f AP_Param: major update to use default values in var_info table
this stores the default value for all scalar variables in the var_info
table, which makes it possible to avoid storing default values in
eeprom. That allows us to oversubscribe the eeprom space with a much
lower risk of overrun.

107155fa1a AP_Mount: Allow using any RC channel to control any of the mount axes.
This has the added benefit of saving 60 bytes and simplifying Mission Planner gui.
Moved some code from RC_Channel_aux to AP_Mount class
The servos get written by the update_mount_position() function, this simplifies main()
PS: The beauty of using libraries: I did not have to touch a single line of ArduPlane's code!

4ffc5e211a Fixing Trad Heli Ext ESC Controller
-Added ramp-down rate instead of instantly setting ramp to zero when throttle is dropped to bottom. This is to allow "warm-restart" if shutdown was unintentional.
-Actual ESC still goes to zero while throttle is dropped to the bottom, only the ramp counter winds down slowly behind the scenes.

bb05dab924 AP_Mount: addition of Amilcar's mount_type

9cd98e79dd AHRS: normalise GA_b before computing error vector only if too large

e61cf0e1f9 AP_Mount: added set_manual_rc_channel and set_manual_rc_channel_function to allow input of pitch, roll and yaw controls from a regular RC_Channel (i.e. not RC_Channel_aux)
For now, angles red in are always of the range -45 deg ~ 45 deg which is consistent with the existing arducopter implementation but should be improved to scale the pilot's input to the mount's actual range.

669ffb5ef8 RC_Channel_aux: added enable_out method to help stop servos from moving before the mount has initialised.
changed parameter names of "update_aux_servo_function" to make it more clear that any 4 servos can be passed in (not just servos 5~8).
Also allowed NULL servos to be passed in as parameters because we only need 3 in ArduCopter.

8ce9aae2f7 Instituting Yaw Differential on Multirotors. Intent is to stop "rise on yaw input".
Since motors with increasing speed due to yaw input seem to generate more thrust that motors that slow lose thrust, thus net thrust goes up, causing copter to climb.
Values are a guesstimate, proven out by test flying.  This could probably become a parameter.

f501503eb0 AP_Baro: improved barometer averaging
this changes the barometer calculations to floating point. On a MS5611

this uses a new formulation of the GPS based drift correction from

even with lots of magnetometer interference

It also makes it possible to fly a multicopter with no compass. It can
even navigate and correct yaw (slowly!)
