Quaternion: fix the gyro bias in centripetal and remove smoothing
...
the centripetal code needs to take account of the current gyro
bias.
It turned out that the accel and gyro smoothing was causing
significant control lag, and we're better off just letting the
quaternion code handle it via its own smoothing parameters
