Plane: improved RC failsafe handling
...
this forces all primary control inputs to the trim value on loss of RC
input, and reduces the timeout for loss of RC input to 1 second from 2

copter users may try to use left rudder to ensure aircraft is
disarmed. Making left rudder arm could be dangerous

on PX4 we just stop getting input on loss of RC - we need to consider
this to be "throttle failsafe"

Plane: added FS_ACTION of 2 for glide
...
this allows people without specified settings in their receiver for
failsafe to choose FBWA zero throttle glide on throttle failsafe. That
can be a better choice when flying at a R/C club field

this mode gives manual control when the roll or pitch is within the
set limits (the same limits as FBW mode), and prevents the pilot from
flying beyond those limits, essentially a "attitude limited manual"

APM: fixed throttle nudging
...
The nudge value depended on RC3_TRIM, which is not a reliable
value. It tried to only take effect when the throttle stick was above
50%, but if RC3_TRIM was high for some reason (say 1500) then it would
actually depress the throttle by a large amount, which could cause the
plane to stall.
This also adds a boolean option THROTTLE_NUDGE to allow disabling of
throttle nudging
