tridge60@gmail.com 9169fff986 let the user know that EEPROM is being erased
it takes about 10-12 seconds, so its nice to know whats going on

tridge60@gmail.com 6cfb9a9c2b replace space() with txspace()
space() was actually intended to be tx buffer space, it just had a
bug. The name txspace() is clearer however, and should prevent
confusion as to which buffer its for

tridge60@gmail.com b8538ed5fb shrink the size of mavlink_message_t using max dialect message size
this makes mavlink_message_t much smaller, but setting
MAVLINK_MAX_PAYLOAD_LEN to the maximum message size in this
dialect. This saves us 320 bytes of memory

tridge60@gmail.com a2589c3573 AP_Var: added EEPROM wear levelling
This adds a variable length dummy variable at the front of the EEPROM
when we erase it, which has the effect of moving the location of any
hot variables within the EEPROM. This should improve EEPROM
life. Thanks to Mike for the implementation.

tridge60@gmail.com 3255503032 AP_Var: avoid wearing out EEPROM by re-writing the same value
when saving a variable, this avoids EEPROM wear by checking if the
existing value is already the same as the value being written, and
avoiding the write.

Thanks to Mike Smith for the implementation

tridge60@gmail.com 442e7ddc49 AP_Var: fill all of EEPROM with 0xFF on erase_all()
This wipes all parameter values, and also clears out any waypoints as
the waypoint format could have changed between firmware revisions.

This also ensures that the AP_Var code can't re-use any key values
from the old EEPROM state, which makes us less dependent on the old
EEPROM being in a good state
