69d4bd2481 AP_NavEKF: Protect against baro data errors in constant position mode
Large baro data errors when flying without GPS could cause total failure of the EKF.
This patch provides protection against this happening in-flight but allows for large innovations during preflight alignment.

831d8acca5 Remove use of PROGMEM
Now variables don't have to be declared with PROGMEM anymore, so remove
them. This was automated with:

    git grep -l -z PROGMEM | xargs -0 sed -i 's/ PROGMEM / /g'
    git grep -l -z PROGMEM | xargs -0 sed -i 's/PROGMEM//g'

The 2 commands were done so we don't leave behind spurious spaces.

AVR-specific places were not changed.

44f42fe72d AP_NavEK: Reduce settling time after start-up disturbance
Now that we are using  a consistent 50Hz minimum update rate for the covariance prediction we do not need a different initial gyro bias uncertainty for plane and copter to maintain filter stability margins.
The default value of 0.1 rad/s was too high and gave excessive settling time of the filter attitude after startup.
The initial attitude uncertainty has been increased to allow for some movement during startup.

6c017ffcb5 AP_NavEKF: Predict covariance more often to prevent instability on startup
If the baro data and magnetometer data are interleaved (arriving every 100 msec and offset by 50 msec), then the filter will go unstable during startup and fail to complete checks.

afccf615d5 AP_NavEKF: use compass get_{field,offsets}() functions

get_{field,offsets}() instead of get_{field,offsets}_milligauss().

3479a0e209 AP_NavEKF: Prevent blocking of synthetic position fusion
Fixes a potential error where changes to timing and arrival rate of magnetometer and baro data could block the fusion of synthetic position and velocity measurements, allowing unrestrained tilt errors during operation without GPS or optical flow.
Fusion of synthetic position or velocity measurements is now timed to coincide with fusion of barometer observations.
If a new barometer observation has not arrived after 200 msec then the synthetic position or velocity is fused anyway so that fusion of synthetic position or velocity observations cannot occur any slower than 5 Hz
