moved reading sonar to the 50hz loop so the Mode filter could do it's thing without causing so much latency

moved ground start to first arming
added ground start flag
moved throttle_integrator to 50hz loop
CAMERA_STABILIZER deprecated - now always on
renamed current logging bit mask to match APM
added MA filter to PID - D term
Adjusted PIDs based on continued testing and new PID filter
added MASK_LOG_SET_DEFAULTS to match APM
moved some stuff out of ground start into system start where it belonged
Added slower Yaw gains for DCM when the copter is in the air
changed camera output to be none scaled PWM
fixed bug where ground_temperature was unfiltered
shortened Baro startup time
fixed issue with Nav_WP integrator not being reset
RTL no longer yaws towards home
Circle mode for flying a 10m circle around the point where it was engaged. - Not tested at all! Consider Circle mode as alpha.

Before: -> After
Stabilize P –> Stabilize P (Use NG values, or 8.3 x the older AC2 value)
Stabilize I –> Stabilize I (Stays same value)
Stabilize D –> Rate P (Stays same value)
–> Rate I (new)
Added a new value – an I term for rate. The old stabilization routines did not use this term. Please refer to the config.h file to read more about the new PIDs.
Added framework for using DCM corrected Accelerometer rates. Code is commented out for now.
Added set home at Arming.
Crosstrack is now a full PID loop, rather than just a P gain for more control.
Throttle now slews when switching out of Alt hold or Auto modes for less jarring transitions
Sonar and Baro PIDs are now combined into a throttle PID Yaw control is completely re-written.
Added Octa_Quad support - Max

updated motor setup test to be sequencial pulses of the motors in CW order.
Fixed Mission scripting logic
fixed Free yaw error in neutral throttle
fixed D term issue with Baro hold - was too high
incremented firmware revision, removed frame var
removed setup show from startup
removed unused EEPROM functions
fixed broken demo mission
fixed non working loiter with delay

The trunk is unstable, so please be careful. I've made a lot of changes based on the Sparkfun challange. Most include how we handle things like altitude, but the mission scripting has also been updated as well.

I have moved Pitch_Max to a different part of the code. It was limiting SIMPLE mode which was bad. Now it only limits in Auto modes, RTL, LOITER, etc.

Added AP_Var Fingerprint checker. Will not let users fly with OOD firmware.
Tweaked Yaw to give better response. Let me know how it goes. It looks fine, but I've not flown it.

This allows the user to configure their own motor arming condition in
APM_Config.h. For example, the user could set it up for MODE1
transmitters, by using:
#define MOTOR_ARM_CONDITION (g.rc_3.control_in == 0 && g.rc_1.control_in > 2700)
#define MOTOR_DISARM_CONDITION (g.rc_3.control_in == 0 && g.rc_1.control_in < -2700)
You could also set it up to use the "throttle cut" switch on a
transmitter, by mapping that to a spare channel.
The default (throttle minimum and maximum/minimum yaw) is the same as
it was before
This patch also adds reporting of motor arming to the GCS, which can
be useful for testing.

this fixes the build with HIL_MODE_ATTITUDE and MAVLink enabled. Basic
MAVLink operation works.
