Previously uORB queue size was an awkward mix of runtime configurable (at advertise or IOCTL before allocate), but effectively static with all queue size settings (outside of test code) actually coming from the topic declaration (presently ORB_QUEUE_LENGTH in the .msg). This change finally resolves the inconsistency making the queue size fully static.
Additionally there were some corner cases that the muorb and orb communicator implementation were not correctly handling. This PR provides fixes for those issues. Also correctly sets remote queue lengths now based on the topic definitions.
* Made setting of uORB topic queue size in based on topic definition only
* Fixes to the ModalAI muorb implementation
* Removed libfc sensor from format checks
* msg/TransponderReport.msg ORB_QUEUE_LENGTH 8->16 (was set to higher in AdsbConflict.h

* PositionSetpoint: remove yaw_valid field
* Navigator: set yaw setpoint to NAN for Takeoff
Don't set a yaw setpoint for takeoff, as Navigator doesn't handle the yaw reset.
The yaw setpoint generation is handled by FlightTaskAuto.
* PositionSetpoint.msg: remove disable_weather_vane and instead only use the yaw field
Strictly follow the concept that if the position_setpoint.yaw is set, then
follow it the controller, and otherwise let the controller set it as it
thinks it's best.
* Navigator: remove logic that sets yaw to be accepted in TAKEOFF
No longer needed as during Takeoff we anyway don't set a yaw setpoint.
* PositionSetpoint.msg: remove yawspeed_valid
* PositionSetpoint.msg: remove yawspeed
* Navigator: set yaw setpoint to NAN instead of current
In set_takeoff and set_land_item, as well as for VTOL transition.
The flight tasks then set the yaw corresponding to the current yaw.
* Navigator: change get_yaw_acceptance into a bool
* PositionSetpoint.msg: improve comment for yaw
* MissionBlock: remove unnecessary code from set_vtol_transition_item
* Navigator: clean up calculate_breaking_stop(), set yaw to NAN
* Navigator: set yaw to NAN in variouls places where not specifc setpoint is desired
* Navigator: set yaw to NAN in reset_position_setpoint()

New thrust and torque control mode added which replaces the previous
actuator mode,
in this mode the rate controllers are disables, the control allocator
is enabled and the used externally provices
vehicle_thrust_setpoints and vehicle_torque_setpoints.
New direct_actuator mode
In direct_actuator mode the control allocator module does not publish
actuator_motors and actuator_servos messages which must instead be
provided extrernally by the user.
Removed old direct mode.

- do reporting of breaching in-air only in geofenceCheck
- remove geofence_violation_reason_t
- replace geofence_breached field in GeofenceResult.msg with 3 fields
(one for each GF type: max dist, max alt, custom geofence)
- the warning message after breaching a GF is only done by Commander,
and it's specific to the GF type failure

Use flow rates instead of integrals in backend. This allows us to delay
the data to the mitpoint integration time and simplifies the code in
general.
Gyro compensation can still be done in EKF2 if needed, but the
flow module normally already appends the correct gyro data to the flow
message.
* created a Performance Model for fixed wing vehicle
- added compensation for maximum climbrate, minimum sinkrate, minimum airspeed and trim airspeed based on weight ratio and air density
- added atmosphere lib to standard atmosphere calculations
