...
Separate correction speeds for pilot input vs altitude-above-ground
errors to allow slower correction to sonar signals.
Change SONAR_GAIN parameter to be altitude error -> desired speed. This
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.

Previously if set_mode failed it would return the copter to stabilize
mode. With this commit set_mode returns a true/false indicating whether
it succeeded or not so the caller can make the decision as to the
appropriate response which could be to stay in the current flight mode
or try another flight mode.

TradHeli: Change to throttle controller to allow swash plate collective to move, even if disarmed, if we are in Acro or Stab. This is slightly dangerous... as a user could cause a problem if they do not follow the proper usage procedures. If they do not route the ESC through the APM, but instead direct to Rx. And then if they do not Arm, they could take off in Stab mode while disarmed, but then when they switch to Alt_Hold, it will drop the collective to the bottom and they will fall. This can be saved by switching back to Stab. And it requires operation outside of the normal operating procedure.
...
This change is being made because most heli users expect to be able to check the swash plate operation before arming and taking off.
