e58ba8044d AP_NavEKF3: Improve protection for badly conditioned dVel bias covariances
If variance falls below desired minimum, set state noise to a larger value.
If variance drops below safe value, set to desired minimum and reset off-diagonals to zero.

bf963f8b65 AP_NavEKF3: Raise lower limit on del vel bias state variances
This is required to prevent co-variance matrix errors due to long periods without movement causing height divergence.

628d140319 AP_NavEKF3: Make target covariance time step larger
The target covariance time step has been increased from 10 to 12 msec to improve conditioning of the covariance prediction calculation.

9f97cbfc3b AP_NavEKF3: Revert auto-code to original form and remove micro optimisations
To eliminate the possibility of editing errors, revert the covariance prediction auto-code to the original auto-code without the replacement fo the /2 and /4 operations. The compiler optimisations are able to correctly handle the /2 and /4 operations.

Also use local variables for intermediate covariance calculations. The use of class variables for these small arrays was unnecessary.

7adaea6019 AP_NavEKF3: Improve partitioning and efficiency of the covariance prediction
This patch ensures that covariance matrix entries for inactive states are always set to zero.
It also halves the number of copy operations from the updated to stored matrix.

a1c117360c AP_NavEKF3: Ensure Kalman gain calculatons respect deactivated states
All Kalman gain calculations now explicity set gains for deactivated states to zero.
Previous use of loops to set gains to zero have been replaced with more efficient memset operations.

5058405f8c AP_NavEKF3: add gyro bias state inhibit and rework index limit calculation
Inhibiting gyro bias estimation during the initial tilt alignment speeds alignment.
The calculation of the maxmum state index required has been modified so that it can handle all combinations of inhibited states.
Limiting the maximum state index accessed by all EKF operations result in significant processing reductions when higher index states are not being used.

a04aff7a7d AP_NavEKF3: added inter-EKF scheduling cooperation
this changes the stragegy for load levelling between EKF cores so it
works between EK2 and EK3, and with future estimators as well.

It allows us to run EK3 and EK2 at the same time with good scheduling
