ArduCopter - AP_Motors library - added new library which has few advantages over current code:
...
1. it's step towards rearchitecting the current code base ahead of a move to RTOS.
2. internally it uses a MatrixTable for the Quad, Octa, OctaQuad, Y6 frames.
3. it implements the missing stability patch for Octa and OctaQuads (still missing for Y6)
Later check-ins will incorporate into the main ArduCopter code.

AP_Param: fixed setting of CAM_P_G in ArduCopter
...
the variable CAM_P_G has the same prefix as the CAM_P group. We want
to allow for parameters having a common prefix with a group, so we
need to keep searching after we've found a group that matches the
prefix

DCM: fixed the sense of the compass GPS test in initial yaw
...
we were only disabling null offsets when we didn't have a compass,
which doesn't make much sense!

Filter - added AverageFilter - this will be used in place of SumFilter because it removes the possibility of overflows

Compass: use constructor to set initial values for _learn and _use_for_yaw
...
this ensures they are set if you have MAG_ENABLE==0

DCM: disable compass null offsets when setting initial yaw
...
we need to ensure the compass null offsets code doesn't see a sudden
yaw change, or it will change the offsets by a large amount very
suddenly

Compass: catch the case of a user enabling a compass mid-flight
...
if a compass has not been initialised at startup we can't enable it
mid-flight, as we don't have the orientation

Compass: added COMPASS_LEARN and COMPASS_USE parameters
...
these allow you to control if the compass should be used for yaw and
if it should learn its offsets. This is useful for locking in compass
offsets once they are confirmed to be good, and for learning offsets
without using them in flights.
The default is to behave the same as previously, which is
COMPASS_LEARN=1 and COMPASS_USE=1

DCM: don't reset _have_initial_yaw for GPS heading unless very slow
...
wait till we reach 1m/s before we reset _have_initial_yaw. This
prevents us continually resetting the DCM matrix if our ground speed
is close to 3m/s.

AP_Param: added special handling for Vector3f
...
We would like to be able to use Vector3f as a parameter while exposing
the individual elements of the vector as MAVLink parameters. This
change to AP_Param makes that possible, by giving AP_Vector3f a dual
personality

DCM: tidy up use of error_course and in_motion
...
in_motion is not a good name now it is also used for the compass
The error_course and heading component values don't need to be part of
the DCM object, they can be on the stack to reduce the memory usage a bit

DCM: use rotation_matrix_from_euler() to calculate initial yaw
...
When we first get a compass reading or we first start motion we need
to setup the DCM matrix with the right yaw. This uses
rotation_matrix_from_euler() to get a DCM matrix corresponding to our
current roll/pitch, but with the correct yaw
