Change to the "Stability Patch" in Motors_Matrix in order to make it cover both the upper throttle range and lower, and also to cause it to raise/lower all motors when a single motor goes out of ranges.

GPS: replaced the GPS auto-detect mechanism
...
the old mechanism wasted most of the input bytes, and chewed a lot of
CPU, making it impractical to do GPS detection for a GPS attached
after startup
The new code is async, and detects a GPS by looking for a fully formed
packet with the right checksum for each GPS type

APM_RC_APM1.cpp: Bugfix on mapping of SetFastOutputChannels to ICR reg
...
* Previously had the ICR register for ch1/2/9 (on timer5) swapped with
ch3/4/10 (on timer1).
* This bug probably didn't make a difference in operation since
SetFastOutputChannels is typically only used for copters, where at
least CH1,2,3,4 would be set to fast all at once.

APM: added the ability to forcibly crash the plane on OBC failsafe breach
...
this allows a user to setup the OBC failsafe system to forcibly crash
the plane (surfaces at limits, zero throttle) when the failsafe system
triggers. This is to allow APM to be used in the Outback Challenge. In
the OBC an external failsafe board also does this using the heartbeat
control pin, so this is an extra safety mechanism.
To prevent users accidentially triggering a crash, this code only
activates if FS_TERM_ACTION is set to to the magic value 42.
