Repurposed external gyro and made it multi-funcitonal.
required PWM on Ch8 to start the motor in RSC Mode moved up from 100 to 400. This is to facilitate two-stage switching of the motors with PWM>100 starting the tail motor, and PWM>400 starting the main motor.

Copter: bug fix to take-off in Loiter and AltHold
...
Always set the target altitude after take-off to be current altitude +
20cm. This resolves a bug in which the target altitude could end up
being a couple of meters higher than the current altitude if the user
entered Loiter / Alt Hold mode before inertial nav altitude estimate had
settled.

means it should be set 10x larger than before.
Replace hard-coded sonar cut-off percentage of 70% with
SONAR_RELIABLE_DISTANCE_PCT.
Reduce sonar cut-off percentage to 60%.
Add desired sonar altitude to dataflash log's CTUN message.
