Andrew Tridgell eec5cd5add AP_AHRS: restore DCM attitude before update()
The DCM drift correction code uses the current attitude to calculate
error values to update its gyro drift correction. If we were using EKF
then without this patch the DCM code running as an alternative AHRS
source would be using the EKF attitude for calculating the error
value, leading to very bad gyro drift estimation

Andrew Tridgell 63c06ea2af AP_AHRS: fixed calls to DCM in parent class
use_compass() and reset() are common to AP_AHRS_DCM and
AP_AHRS_NavEKF. As AP_AHRS_NavEKF is a child of AP_AHRS_DCM, when we
call use_compass() from within AP_AHRS_DCM we actually end up calling
AP_AHRS_NavEKF::use_compass().

This has the effect of disabling the compass in DCM when EKF is active
and EKF has decided not to use the compass. That means that the DCM
yaw (and in fact the whole attitude) can get badly off while EKF is
enabled, making DCM an ineffective fallback if EKF fails.

The fix is to call the specific class versions of use_compass() and
reset()
