Matt 3d3f06cacb AP_Motors: Add actuator output slew time to multicopters
Adds slew time limiting for throttling up and throttling down to multicopters.  New parameters MOT_SLEW_UP_TIME and MOT_SLEW_DN_TIME added.  0 = disabled, no slew limiting.  Valid values are 0 to 0.5 seconds.  Also reworked functions related to linearization and PWM conversion to make more flexible throughout the code.

Andrew Tridgell e340fac2e0 AP_Motors: avoid float exception for small expo
very small values of the thrust expo cause a floating point
exception. As zero is a documented value meaning linear we need to
handle this.

Leonard Hall d28182435e AP_Motors: allow for negative thrust expo
This allows for motors with a thrust curve that decreases with demand.

Dr.-Ing. Amilcar Do Carmo Lucas 9d9ebc91cd AP_Motors: Use SI units conventions in parameter units
Follow the rules from:
http://physics.nist.gov/cuu/Units/units.html
http://physics.nist.gov/cuu/Units/outside.html
and
http://physics.nist.gov/cuu/Units/checklist.html
one further constrain is that only printable (7bit) ASCII characters are allowed

Andrew Tridgell bdc4320fe8 AP_Motors: added MOT_BOOST_SCALE
this is to support boost motors for copters, such as having a petrol
motor for extra lift on a multicopter

The scaling factor allows the user to control how much of the lift is
generated from the booster and how much from the main multicopter
motors

Andrew Tridgell 2c4975ba31 AP_Motors: removed cork/push from AP_Motors
should be done by vehicle code if needed, so that AUX servos are sent
at the same time

Jacob Walser 507b461388 AP_Motors: Initialize throttle range directly
This was causing SITL to hang at boot when motors object is statically allocated.

Lucas De Marchi ade1876318 AP_Motors: tie esc scaling with set_throttle_range()
We need to update the esc scaling from inside the Motors library, that
has access to the MOT_PWM_[MIN|MAX] values. Otherwise even though the
AP_Motors library honors the value for calculations, the RCOutput
drivers that need the scaling to set the real HW scaling will not work.
Right now it scales the value using the throttle_channel's min/max, even
though AP_Motors may be passing values in other range.
