HAL_PX4: fixed auto-flow control

HAL_PX4: better fix for IFLOW on all ports
...
the tcsetattr() call fails to apply the baudrate if the port has no
RTS pin and we ask for IFLOW. So just make a separate call.

HAL_PX4: don't enable IFLOW on ports without flow control
...
this should have been harmless, but breaks the GPS on Pixhawk. This
disables it until we work out why.

PX4: use a minimum transmit buffer for UARTs of 512 bytes
...
this avoids writes stalling on the GPS port. We can't afford this
memory on APM2, but we can on PX4, and it means that while the GPS is
blocking at startup it doesn't cause any scheduler slips

HAL_PX4: rewrite UART driver to be much more efficient
...
this does the IO in the timer thread, and uses buffers in the main
task to avoid system call costs in the flight code.
The cost of PX4 read and write system calls is quite high - about 10
to 15 usec. We can't afford to pay that per byte
