- no longer start sercon or mavlink usb by default
- on USB connection (VBUS) monitor serial USB at low rate and start Mavlink if there's a HEARTBEAT or nshterm on 3 consecutive carriage returns
- the mavlink USB instance is automatically stopped and serdis executed if USB is disconnected
- skipping Mavlink USB (and sercon) saves a considerable amount of memory on older boards
- naming consistency (estimator prefix as "namespace")
- only publish if baro is available and bias is changing as a small logging optimization
- avoid unnecessary copying (get const reference to status directly)
- trivial code style fixes
- include icm20948 on most boards by default
- create more test variants for default boards near flash limit (cuav_nora_test, cuav_x7pro_test, holybro_durandal-v1_test)
* msg: Add estinator information and warning events message (estimator_event_flags)
* ekf2: publish information and warning events
* logger: log estimator_event_flags
* update ecl submodule to latest

- log all estimator (ekf2) flags as separate booleans in a new dedicated low rate message (only publishes at 1 Hz or immediately on any change)
- this is a bit verbose, but it avoids the duplicate bit definitions we currently have across PX4 msgs, ecl analysis script, flight review, and many other custom tools and it's much easier for casual log review in FlightPlot, PlotJuggler, csv, etc
- for compatibility I've left estimator_status filter_fault_flags, innovation_check_flags, and solution_status_flags in place, but they can gradually be removed as tooling is updated

- px4_fmu-v5 debug and stackcheck builds initial configuration is best effort
- nxp_fmuk66-v3 allow overall tests command to fail due to intermittent serial console issues
- switch to python3
- run_nsh_cmd.py return error if command fails
- decrease timeout in checking for output
- Jenkins hardware tests tolerate certain command failures that aren't available on all boards (flash constrained, etc)
- ekf2 can now run in multi-instance mode (currently up to 9 instances)
- in multi mode all estimates are published to alternate topics (eg estimator_attitude instead of vehicle_attitude)
- new ekf2 selector runs in multi-instance mode to monitor and compare all instances, selecting a primary (eg N x estimator_attitude => vehicle_attitude)
- sensors module accel & gyro inconsistency checks are now relative to the mean of all instances, rather than the current primary (when active ekf2 selector is responsible for choosing primary accel & gyro)
- existing consumers of estimator_status must check estimator_selector_status to select current primary instance status
- ekf2 single instance mode is still fully supported and the default

- inconsistency checks now run continuously instead of only preflight
- keep inconsistencies for all sensors
- add per sensor data validator state as overall health flag
- Nuttx only process all suspend & resume scheduling notes when top is running, otherwise only track IDLE
- convert cpuload and print load to c++
- delete unused fields from print_load struct
- update hrt_store_absolute_time (previous unused)
- remove all remaining IOCTLs for accel and gyro and handle all calibration entirely in sensors module with parameters
- sensor_accel and sensor_gyro are now always raw sensor data
- calibration procedures no longer need to first clear existing values before starting
- temperature calibration (TC) remove all scale (SCL) parameters
- gyro and baro scale are completely unused
- regular accel calibration scale can be used (CAL_ACC*_xSCALE) instead of TC scale
- IMU integration move from drivers (PX4Accelerometer/PX4Gyroscope) to sensors/vehicle_imu
- sensors: voted_sensors_update now consumes vehicle_imu
- delete sensor_accel_integrated, sensor_gyro_integrated
- merge sensor_accel_status/sensor_gyro_status into vehicle_imu_status
- sensors status output minor improvements (ordering, whitespace, show selected sensor device id and instance)
- /proc meminfo and uptime
- gps status, ekf2 status, attitude, local position
- try to force update px4io on a few boards
- set SDLOG_DIRS_MAX 1 on board cleanup to minimize usage
- increase stack sizes to run cleanly under stackcheck
- this is likely overkill for most boards, but using stackcheck to set our minimum ensures we have a very safe margin on regular builds and it's something we can currently afford
- remove holybro_durandal-v1_stackcheck from test rack (there's only one unit)
