Mission command support was already included but this adds support for

GCS when the command should be executed immediately

3fa3cb6d65 Copter: remove EPM neutral from ch7/ch8 switch
The EPM library returns the pwm output sent to the EPM to the neutral
position automatically meaning an explicit ch7/ch8 setting is not
required

224122958c Copter: reduce throttle to min once landed in RTL
This catches the case where the vehicle lands but the user doesn't
immediately put the throttle to zero.  Before this check it would
continue to attempt to hold it's

a12d9109e0 Copter: remove thr check during init_arm_motors
This check is redundant now that we have a check within the arm_check()
function.
Removing this check does raise a slight danger that someone could raise
the throttle after arming but before the gyro and baro calibration has
completed but the delay has been greatly shortened from what it once was
so there is much less danger that someone could approach the vehicle
during the short arming delay.

294f836c8c Copter: never send unhealthy terrain status
Copter does not yet rely on the terrain data (it's for informational
purposes only) so we will temporarily disable the failure flags to the
GCS to avoid support calls

28f31166b9 Copter: land check gets overall throttle and rotation rate check
add check that overall throttle level is below the non-takeoff throttle
instead of just checking that it's motors have hit their lower limits
because low limits can also be caused by high yaw rotation requests.
Absolute climb rate requirement reduced to 30cm/s

05a37dd54d Copter: add short delay to arming to allow RC input
The short delay gives time for the RC inputs to be processed which
removes the chance of a false-positive on the "late frame" radio check.
A false positive could lead to an immediate disarm right after arming.

63d0cddfa4 Copter: make landing detector more strict
Made more strict by requiring 50 consecutive iterations where the climb
rate is below +- 40cm/s.  Previously it was 50 cumulative.

Removed check of failsafe.radio when clearing the land flag because it
could result in the vehicle taking off if the user picked it up.
