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"
mode
sanity checking added to accelerometer calibration routine.
user feedback is sent using gcs_send_text_fmt instead of Serial.printf.
moved ins parameters to new eeprom number to avoid conflicts with older parameters.
other small changes including renaming of functions and parameters.
Fixes compatibility for APM2. Also a significant update to the battery monitoring code: We previously had monitoring modes for individual cell voltages for 3 and 4 cell lipos. These have been removed as they were never really supported (the cell voltages were computed but were not reported or recorded anywhere). Also, some clean-up/prep work was done for supporting monitoring 2 separate battery packs. The CLI battery and current monitoring tests were consolidated into 1 test.
changed
Since the magnetometer offsets are not available through the MAVLink parameter interface (since they are an AP_Var vector) this little feature allows them to be reset from the CLI. Useful if you somehow get bad offsets or if you change magnetometer. If you have a bad set of large offset values I have seen issues with the nulling algorithm have trouble converging to the proper values. I have never seen it have trouble converging from 0/0/0, so this could be a useful feature from time to time.
