Andrew Tridgell e340fac2e0 AP_Motors: avoid float exception for small expo
very small values of the thrust expo cause a floating point
exception. As zero is a documented value meaning linear we need to
handle this.

Andrew Tridgell c8b6be6736 AP_Motors: fixed scaling of servo outputs
thanks to bnsgeyer for noicing this in issue #6977

this will break existing dual-heli setups, but there are so few people
flying them so far that I think it is a worthwhile change

Andrew Tridgell 46d9a1dcb5 AP_Motors: fixed tricopter tail servo in fwd flight
in quadplane forward flight the with tilt-tricopter tail servo needs to
be at its trim position. Thanks to Marco for noticing this.

Andrew Tridgell bdc4320fe8 AP_Motors: added MOT_BOOST_SCALE
this is to support boost motors for copters, such as having a petrol
motor for extra lift on a multicopter

The scaling factor allows the user to control how much of the lift is
generated from the booster and how much from the main multicopter
motors

Jacob Walser 507b461388 AP_Motors: Initialize throttle range directly
This was causing SITL to hang at boot when motors object is statically allocated.

Lucas De Marchi ade1876318 AP_Motors: tie esc scaling with set_throttle_range()
We need to update the esc scaling from inside the Motors library, that
has access to the MOT_PWM_[MIN|MAX] values. Otherwise even though the
AP_Motors library honors the value for calculations, the RCOutput
drivers that need the scaling to set the real HW scaling will not work.
Right now it scales the value using the throttle_channel's min/max, even
though AP_Motors may be passing values in other range.
