UAVCAN rangefinders add themselves to the frontend drivers as the
devices appear. If they turn up before RangeFinder::init() is run then
this prevented init() from scanning for the other rangefinders as
num_instances is non-zero
This also fixes a race condition in updating num_instances in the
UAVCAN backend
GCSs may request this very early on in the boot process, particularly
for SITL.
If we try to send it during a delay callback then we end up dropping it
at the moment - but we'd already sent the ack in response to the
request.
If anything in start_new_log did logging (for example, by sending a
statustext), we end up infinitely recursing.

I'm not aware of any instances in the code where this will actually
happen - but it could easily sneak in.
this updates pymavlink to avoid PACKED structures when we don't need
them. That removes a bunch of compiler warnings, and also allows us to
find real cases where unaligned structure access is not valid
Saves 8 bytes per airspeed sensor (2 backends for 8 total), and removes
the unneeded width specifier, which has no impact on used memory, and
saves us 88 bytes of flash because we don't have to do work to shift the
bits around.
fix quadplane FFT reference calculation
re-enable harmonic test
use median for measuring in-flight FFT average as it's much more reliable
relax quadplane filter restriction
AP_Arming tacks on the sub-system bit.
Remove PiccoloCAN's silly nullptr check
Require the library to supply the failure message (no default message)
Remove default cases so authors know to think about places they should
add things.
