Compass: remove the need to call calculate() on the compass object
...
the new AHRS code doesn't use calculate() and the compass.heading
attribute. Instead it works on the raw magnetometer vector. This
change removes the internal calculate state from the compass object
and instead adds calculate_heading() for use by older code that
doesn't go via AHRS.
This significantly reduces the calculation involved in compass updates
The null offsets enable/disable code is also removed, as it is not
needed now that compass offsets are not linked to the AHRS state.

AHRS: normalize the ge vector in drift correction, and use barometer
...
The normalisation ensures the error term scales uniformly with
different accelerations.
The barometer is used for vertical acceleration estimation

the barometer can now calibrate and return altitude values.

Baro: added get_altitude() and get_climb_rate() interfaces
...
this allows the barometer driver to calibrate and return altitude and
climb rate values. This will be used by the AHRS drift correction code
for vertical velocity
The climb rate uses a 5 point average filter

AHRS: brought DCM more inline with Bill's implementation

omega_I applied continuously. _ki larger. Stop integrating when _omega.length()>20

AHRS: first successful version of Bills new drift correction system
...
This makes 3 major changes:
1) fixes the scaling of the yaw drift correction term to fix the time
constant
2) don't integrate the mag vector over multiple readings
3) accumulate omega_I changes over 15 seconds before applying, to try
to prevent omega_I picking up short term responses
