bnsgeyer dec8c5de77 AP_Motors: convert heli code to use SRV_Channels
this converts the heli code to use the SRV_Channels output
functions. It does not change behaviour, but removes the last vehicle
type that did its own servo output calculations.  This change also
fixed servo initialization conflicts.

Note that this also allows helis to be setup with more than one
channel for a particular output (eg. two separate channels for tail
servo if they are wanted). This isn't likely to be used much, but does
make heli consistent with other vehicle types

ChristopherOlson 9aa685a6d8 AP_Motors:TradHeli - single rotor only - add support for H3-140 swashplates.
Also changes the old definition to H3 for swashplates with fixed control radius and adjustable servo position.

ChristopherOlson 96793a3ae7 AP_Motors:TradHeli - DDVP Ramp/Runup
Change to ramp and runup DDVP tail rotor to prevent torque pitching the frame and provide runup in sync with main
rotor like a mechanically driven tail.

Fix some comments and remove indents found in whitespace in AP_MotorsHeli.cpp and AP_MotorsHeli.h

Mathieu OTHACEHE 152edf7189 Global: remove mode line from headers
Using a global .dir-locals.el file is a better alternative than
reincluding the same emacs header in every file of the project.

Andrew Tridgell 11975223dd AP_Motors: added H_RSC_POWER_NEGC and H_RSC_SLEWRATE
this gives more control over throttle for petrol
helis. H_RSC_POWER_NEGC allows for a asymmetric V-curve, which allows
for less power being put into the head when landing or when sitting on
the ground. That can lead to significantly less vibration and chance
of ground oscillation. A heli not being flown with aerobatics does not
need to use high throttle at negative collective pitch.

The H_RSC_SLEWRATE allows for a maximum throttle slew rate to be
set. Some petrol motors can cut if the throttle is moved too
quickly. We had this happen at a height of 6m when switching from
ALT_HOLD to STABILIZE mode. It also lowers the chance of the blades
skewing in their holders with the sudden change of power when the heli
is disarmed. In general it is a bad idea to do instantaneous large
movements of a IC engine throttle.

dgrat 41661f815f AP_Math: Replace the pythagorous* functions with a variadic template
The new function can deal with a variable number of function parameters.
Additionally, I renamed the functions to norm(), because this is the
standard name used in several other projects.
