- 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

* Add techpod SITL target
This adds a SITL target forthe techpod fixedwing model
* Update sitl_gazebo submoudle
This submodule update includes the techpod UAV model
* Add jsbsim bridge to enable jsbsim for px4 SITL/HIL on jsbsim
This is a PX4 HIL/SITL integration into JSBSim. JSBSim is an open source flight dynamics model (http://jsbsim.sourceforge.net/)
Currently there are three models available which is the rascal, quadrotor_x, hexarotor_x integrated into the bridge.
The simulation can be run with the firmware with the following command for example
```
make px4_sitl jsbsim_rascal
```
The visualization is done flightgear and is done by the bridge sending UDP packets to flightgear. To disable the visualization `HEADLESS=1` when running the make command.
The simulation can be configured through the configuration files under the `config` directory through a xml file. Senor configurations, The xml file name should match the name of the model.
* Update Tools/sitl_run.sh

- fix gazebo SITL debug
- now prompts you to select vehicle
- devcontainer.json container support https://code.visualstudio.com/docs/remote/containers
- this allows you to jump straight into working within a container (px4-dev-nuttx) on a fresh machine
- also helps with Codespaces https://github.com/features/codespaces
- plugin updates
- cpp extension pack, spell checking, CTest support
- cleanup intellisense
- the backup tag parser was a resource hog and didn't work very well
- fix problemMatcher support so that you can click on a build failure

This should prevent the race between gzserver and gz model and fix the
integration tests which sometimes timeout because the model is not
spawned correctly.
This patch also changes the shebang to what's generally recommended.
If `make px4_sitl_default` is run, and not `make px4_sitl_default gazebo` then each model instance will throw the following errors:

- Spaces -> tabs.
- Remove "brew install python" because it's already a dependency of the
px4-dev tap.
- Remove "brew install ccache" as we can also add it to the px4-dev tap.
- Don't try to update pip installation, it works fine as is.
- Install pip dependencies as user, no need for system-wide install.
