...
This provides the calling vehicle software the abiity to request the EKF to not use GPS.
An integer is returned that indicates the type of operation available:
0 = request rejected (request will only be accepted if the EKF is in static mode, eg pre-armed)
1 = request accepted, attitude, vertical velocity and position estimates available
2 = request accepted, attitude, height rate, height, horizontal velocity and relative position estimates available

AP_NavEKF : Reduce ripple in estimates that can cause copter motor 'pulsing'
...
This patch reduces the level of 5Hz and 10Hz 'pulsing' heard in motors due to GPS and altimeter fusion which cause a small 5Hz and 10Hz ripple on the output under some conditions. Attitude, velocity and position state corrections from GPS, altimeter and magnetometer measurements are applied incrementally in the interval from receiving the measurement to the predicted time of receipt of the next measurement. Averaging of attitude state corrections is not performed during periods of rapid rotation.
Time stamps are now explicitly initialised to the current IMU time to avoid unwanted activation of timeout logic on filter start and the various calls to the hal.scheduler->millis() object have been consolidated.
Unused variables have been removed
