Dr.-Ing. Amilcar do Carmo Lucas b6b4c972f9 Tools: Script to fetch online ArduPilot parameter documentation (if not cached) and
add it to the specified file or to all *.param and *.parm files in the specified directory.

1. Checks if a local cache of the XML file exists in the target directory or on the directory of the target file:
 - If it does, the script loads the file content.
 - If it doesn't, the script sends a GET request to the URL to fetch the XML data for the requested vehicle type.
2. Parses the XML data and creates a dictionary of parameter documentation.
3. DELETES all comments that start at the beginning of a line
4. Adds the parameter documentation to the target file or to all *.param,*.parm files in the target directory.
