Fixing Trad Heli Ext ESC Controller
...
-Added ramp-down rate instead of instantly setting ramp to zero when throttle is dropped to bottom. This is to allow "warm-restart" if shutdown was unintentional.
-Actual ESC still goes to zero while throttle is dropped to the bottom, only the ramp counter winds down slowly behind the scenes.

Change to prevent Tricopter servos from going hard-over during Disarmed state.
...
Believe this was an oversight when the change to AP_Motors went in.

Instituting Yaw Differential on Multirotors. Intent is to stop "rise on yaw input".
...
Since motors with increasing speed due to yaw input seem to generate more thrust that motors that slow lose thrust, thus net thrust goes up, causing copter to climb.
Values are a guesstimate, proven out by test flying. This could probably become a parameter.

ArduCopter: bug fix for reversing tri servo
...
Extended AP_MotorsTri class to take in pointer to rc_tail servo (rc_7) and we use this servo's REV parameter to determine whether to reverse the output to the tail servo or not

AP_MotorsHeli - fixed compiler warning re move_swash function declared with int parameters in .h file but actually using int16_t in .cpp file. They're the same in arduino but perhaps the build checker is a little more strict that Arduino.

ArduCopter - AP_Motors library - added new library which has few advantages over current code:
...
1. it's step towards rearchitecting the current code base ahead of a move to RTOS.
2. internally it uses a MatrixTable for the Quad, Octa, OctaQuad, Y6 frames.
3. it implements the missing stability patch for Octa and OctaQuads (still missing for Y6)
Later check-ins will incorporate into the main ArduCopter code.
