monitoring of task timing (via SCHED_DEBUG)

Plane: removed the old crash_timer code
...
This code is less relevent with the new L1 navigation, and could cause
issues with the pilot not having control after a long dive.
Thanks to Soren for pointing out the issues
See issue #305

another parameter that everyone changed.

Plane: removed HIL_MODE_ATTITUDE

we really need full sensors for HIL with the L1 controller. The flight
is also _much_ better with sensors HIL.

Plane: update for new AP_Navigation controller class
...
this switches ArduPlane over to use the L1 navigation controller, via
a generic nav_controller object pointer.
Note that the nav_controller controls all types of navigation now,
including level flight and heading hold. This provides a cleaner
abstraction than the old method of special case navigation handling

Plane: change FBWB altitude control algorithm
...
this makes FBWB much less sensitive to airframe tuning. When the
elevator stick first goes neutral it locks in the current altitude as
the target altitude. When the elevator stick is off neutral, it moves
the target altitude in proportion to the elevator, at a rate goverened
by the new FBWB_CLIMB_RATE parameter
This prevents the aircraft from slowly drifting in altitude in FBWB,
and gives a more intuitive control mechanism for altitude.
Thanks to Chris Miser from Falcon UAV for help in designing this
change

Plane: added new TRAINING mode
...
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"

changes).
