Motors: Use _motor_to_channel_map in tricopter consistently.
...
In AP_MotorsTri.cpp the AP_MOTORS_MOT_1, _2 and _4 constants are
always mapped to actual output channels through _motor_to_channel_map
while the _CH_TRI_YAW is not, but there were a few inconsistencies
in this that could lead to things like PWM min and max values being
set on wrong channels.
It looks like all in all _motor_to_channel_map being in PROGMEM
probably doesn't help save memory and I'm not sure how useful it is
in the first place but regardless the usage should be consistent.

AP_L1_Control: fixed uTurn-wobble
...
When performing a u-turn in AUTO (waypoints are 180deg turn from each other) sometimes the aircraft can't decide to turn left or right and wobbled back and forth a couple times. There was existing code to solve this but it was not executing all the time like when in LOITER mode. Frankly, I don't understand the criteria that was required to make it execute and i suspect there is still a gremlin in that logic but just executing the check all the time makes prevents the wobble behavior.

AP_NavEKF: Prevent baro drift causing toilet bowling
...
The magnetic field states are reset once at 1.5 metres and again at 5 metres. This height check was using the height at the first arm event as the reference. In the situation where there is baro drift and extgended time between the first arm event and flight, this can cause the magnetic field state to be reset when on the ground. If this happens when flying off a metallic surface, the resultant heading errors can cause sever toilet bowling.

Improvements in PX4 firmware have reduced the computational load and mkae the previous practicwe of splitting magnetometer and optical flow fusion across multiple time steps unnecessary and make it possible to perform a covariance prediction prior to fusing data on the same time step. This patch:
1) Ensures that a covariance prediction is always performed prior to fusion of any observation
2) Removes the splitting of magnetometer fusion so that fusion of the X,Y and Z components occurs on the same time time step
3) Removes the splitting of optical flow fusion so that fusion of X and Y components occurs on the same time step
