Dr.-Ing. Amilcar Do Carmo Lucas 9d9ebc91cd AP_Motors: Use SI units conventions in parameter units
Follow the rules from:
http://physics.nist.gov/cuu/Units/units.html
http://physics.nist.gov/cuu/Units/outside.html
and
http://physics.nist.gov/cuu/Units/checklist.html
one further constrain is that only printable (7bit) ASCII characters are allowed

Andrew Tridgell 2c4975ba31 AP_Motors: removed cork/push from AP_Motors
should be done by vehicle code if needed, so that AUX servos are sent
at the same time

Mathieu OTHACEHE 152edf7189 Global: remove mode line from headers
Using a global .dir-locals.el file is a better alternative than
reincluding the same emacs header in every file of the project.

Andrew Tridgell 7cd7f03d56 AP_Motors: fixed use of trim on heli servos
this was broken by the servo range 0 to 1 changes

Andrew Tridgell 270fa95a8d AP_Morors: scale colyaw to match previous behaviour
this was missed in the motor scaling changes. Thanks to Rob for
noticing this.

Andrew Tridgell 11975223dd AP_Motors: added H_RSC_POWER_NEGC and H_RSC_SLEWRATE
this gives more control over throttle for petrol
helis. H_RSC_POWER_NEGC allows for a asymmetric V-curve, which allows
for less power being put into the head when landing or when sitting on
the ground. That can lead to significantly less vibration and chance
of ground oscillation. A heli not being flown with aerobatics does not
need to use high throttle at negative collective pitch.

The H_RSC_SLEWRATE allows for a maximum throttle slew rate to be
set. Some petrol motors can cut if the throttle is moved too
quickly. We had this happen at a height of 6m when switching from
ALT_HOLD to STABILIZE mode. It also lowers the chance of the blades
skewing in their holders with the sudden change of power when the heli
is disarmed. In general it is a bad idea to do instantaneous large
movements of a IC engine throttle.

dgrat 41661f815f AP_Math: Replace the pythagorous* functions with a variadic template
The new function can deal with a variable number of function parameters.
Additionally, I renamed the functions to norm(), because this is the
standard name used in several other projects.

Lucas De Marchi 831d8acca5 Remove use of PROGMEM
Now variables don't have to be declared with PROGMEM anymore, so remove
them. This was automated with:

    git grep -l -z PROGMEM | xargs -0 sed -i 's/ PROGMEM / /g'
    git grep -l -z PROGMEM | xargs -0 sed -i 's/PROGMEM//g'

The 2 commands were done so we don't leave behind spurious spaces.

AVR-specific places were not changed.

Lucas De Marchi f43f6c53f7 AP_Motors: Group writes to motors
Surround calls to rcout->write() with rcout->cork() and rcout->push().
If the RCOutput implementation allows the writes are grouped and only
