Arducopter.pde : Added Approach mode, added "Toy" mode fun code I'm playing with.
...
Added landing code to make landing happen closer to home loc
Added check for distance to Loiter WP before overriding a new Loiter position.
Moved calc_loiter_pitch_roll() to 50 hz.
removed the nav_bearing var - not used with new crosstrack.

Inertial Control
...
I added inertial navigation based on the simulator data. This is an option only available if you compile with Arduino and set
#define INERTIAL_NAV ENABLED
in the APM_Config.h file.
This has been tested for one real flight and did not crash my quad, but consider it very alpha. The quad may be unpredictable at first until the error correction fixes poorly calibrated accels. Be Careful.
Most of the real work is in the inertia file, but the error correction, new variable defines and calibration calls are sprinkled throughout.
The Log should record RAW messages with special debugging values.

ArduCopter: Ensure update_GPS does nothing when gps is disabled.
...
This fixes a bug in which an APM without a GPS would not work because it would constantly scan for a valid GPS long after it should have given up and moved on.
