waf: use ap_library tool
...
That way we avoid recompiling source files that don't depend on vehicles.
Change notes:
- UTILITY_SOURCE_EXTS: moved to ap_library
- Task generators indexes: ap_library handles that now and in a better way
- Use of AP_STLIB_FEATURES: it doesn't make sense anymore, since the stlib
taskgen has empty source list
- Flags and defines: passed down to ap_library through AP_LIBRARIES_OBJECTS_KW
- Set use='mavlink' in AP_LIBRARIES_OBJECTS_KW instead of calls to
bld.ap_stlib().

Copter: factor pre-arm checks, continue testing after a failure

The functional change here is that we continue to run later checks
when a check fails.
The user-visible effect of that is that your GCS will tell you about
all pre-arm failures, not just the first.
This makes things work a little more like Plane, in preparation for
using AP_Arming.

Copter: ensure RTL to rally point does not breach the altitude fence
...
Previously we added the rally-point altitude to the calculated return altitude on the final line of this function meaning the fence's altitude check was not performed on the final value. This change adds the rally-point altitude as the first step so it is included before the fence altitude check.
This change also converts the return alt to an alt-above-home so that it can correctly be compared to the fence (previously a terrain-altitude might have been compared to an alt-above home)
