eba7d6da9a Plane: removed the old crash_timer code
This code is less relevent with the new L1 navigation, and could cause
issues with the pilot not having control after a long dive.

Thanks to Soren for pointing out the issues

See issue #305

11eb0cfce1 Plane: update for new AP_Navigation controller class
this switches ArduPlane over to use the L1 navigation controller, via
a generic nav_controller object pointer.

Note that the nav_controller controls all types of navigation now,
including level flight and heading hold. This provides a cleaner
abstraction than the old method of special case navigation handling
