5fd39ce436 Copter: reduce throttle to min once landed in RTL
This catches the case where the vehicle lands but the user doesn't
immediately put the throttle to zero.  Before this check it would
continue to attempt to hold it's

cac10a3041 Copter: never send unhealthy terrain status
Copter does not yet rely on the terrain data (it's for informational
purposes only) so we will temporarily disable the failure flags to the
GCS to avoid support calls

dbb0283dba Copter: land check gets overall throttle and rotation rate check
add check that overall throttle level is below the non-takeoff throttle
instead of just checking that it's motors have hit their lower limits
because low limits can also be caused by high yaw rotation requests.
Absolute climb rate requirement reduced to 30cm/s

b214b8ba15 Copter: add short delay to arming to allow RC input
The short delay gives time for the RC inputs to be processed which
removes the chance of a false-positive on the "late frame" radio check.
A false positive could lead to an immediate disarm right after arming.

f78aff67c2 Copter: make landing detector more strict
Made more strict by requiring 50 consecutive iterations where the climb
rate is below +- 40cm/s.  Previously it was 50 cumulative.

Removed check of failsafe.radio when clearing the land flag because it
could result in the vehicle taking off if the user picked it up.

2d02d8d15f Copter: remove inav check
the EKF check works reliably but attempts to check the inertial nav for
errors has not been successful.  I could not find a way to reliably
catch flyaways without also introducing false positives (and thus
unwanted LANDings)

85b4ba6142 Copter: Thr and Batt failsafe disarm when landed
When throttle/radio failsafe or battery failsafe are triggered, the
vehicle will disarm if it is landed even if the throttle is not at zero.
Auto mode will disarm if landed and mission has not started.  This
ensures that the vehicle does not disarm during a mission land command
that appears mid way through a mission.
