e2fbc00b52 LeadFilter: removed this unused library
This was used to project the GPS position forward to compensate for lag
but this has become unnecessary with the introduction of the inertial
nav in x and y axis.

0f72eae216 AP_Camera: removed 3 camera trigger types that do not work
the trigger by wp distance, trigger with throttle off and trigger a
transistor all don't work, and are not structured correctly, plus are
dangerous.

The existing relay support can (correctly!) handle the resistor case
without hard-wiring a pin. The "turn off throttle to trigger" idea is
badly broken, it would crash a copter if it worked. We can make it
work properly on planes if there is demand. As it was it didn't work
anyway. 

The triggger by wp distance method was broken, and had no way to
initiate a trigger anyway
