21164ef409 Plane: added tailsitter surface speed scaling
added scaling of control surfaces by throttle when in hover. This helps
the controller remain stable over a wide range of throttle levels, such
as when descending or rapidly climbing

aa430a6e2c Plane: use RTL_RADIUS for QRTL threshold
when Q_RTL_MODE=1 in a quadplane use RTL_RADIUS as the distance to
switch to QRTL mode. We navigate to the destination using direct
waypoint navigation instead of using a loiter circle.

0aed5a9a57 Plane: prevent controller windup on ground
when on the ground in an auto-throttle mode lik FBWB or CRUISE, we may
have the throttle suppressed. In that case we should not run the
multicopter controller on quadplanes, or it may build up control which
will then apply on takeoff. This is particularly severe for aircraft
that are not level on the ground, such as taildragger quadplanes

40fd1b346c global: remove rangefinder from AP_AHRS_NavEKF
AP_AHRS_NavEKF doesn't use the rangefinder, it just delegates the
calls to the right estimator.

For libraries/AP_AHRS/examples/AHRS_Test/AHRS_Test.cpp the initialization
order has also been modified to match the order on vehicles. It's more
correct since it passes a reference when EKF2/EKF3 are already
constructed, while thos constructors use a pointer.  Ideally these
should be moved to an init() method though, or use a get_instance().

18ff17e22c ArduPlane: move version to a static member
We should never include version.h or ap_version.h headers directly
on a header since this will trigger a complete rebuild of the
codebase when we commit to the repository. The ap_version.h header
is auto-generated containing information from the current commit.

If we include it in a header, every other file that ends up including
that header (directly or indirectly) will need to be rebuilt. No
ccache's cache beats having to do nothing when the header is just
not included.

version.h contains information that is kept on a struct inside
each vehicle. Rather than using the macros from each vehicle,
the getter should be preferred, which returns an AP_FWVersion
referente.
