THIS MEANS YOU MUST RETUNE YOUR PID LOOP IF YOU'RE FLYING WITH IT
Alternatively divide Kd by 1000 and multiply Ki by 1000

Flight: Create PositionDesired (the active waypoint) UAVObject and make the FlightSituationActual no update since it not used.
Flight: New velocity desired object that passes information between the look computing the desired velocity and the PID loop to get it (updated at different rates)
UAVObjects/PositionActual: Remove unused GPS fields
UAVObjects/PositionActual VelocityActual: Split the velocity into a separate object. ALso make sure all the information telemetered around is in cm to avoid using floats.
UAVObject/GuidanceSettings: New guidance settings object for the guidance module
Flight/Posix: Add the new objects to the Posix sim
Flight/Guidance: Computes a desired velocity based on position error than runs a PID loop to control roll and pitch to achieve that velocity. All distances are in cm, and updated the PositionActual fields to reflect this and use int32.

determine retransmitting calibration, home location and such.

Calibration should take less time now too (using second moments to estimate
variance in one pass). Now need to change to multiple messages to get the
calibration in to keep the request message size minimal. Also currently
running sensor calibrate doesn't store the gyro bias so if you want to use this
you'll have to tweak it manually. I'll fix that step tomorrow.

Removing some Experimental and Incomplete Modules and their UAVObjects not suited for 1.0
- they will be moved into an experimental branch:
Navigation : experimental code only
FlightSituation: experimental code only
Guidance : preliminary draft - possibly to be replaced by peabody124 position hold code if finished in time.

Creating GuidanceModule together with PositionDesired UAVObject (as discussed),
so dschin and me can work on it :-)
Will compile and (on sim_posix) execute, but PID logic is yet untested and preliminary.

This is functionally the same as having a heading hold gyro in hardware.
Code is copied from the simple stabilisation routine and is a bit rough at the minute, but initial testing looks good.

The EOC EXTI interrupt configuration was incorrectly
pointing at GPIOG pin 8 rather than GPIOC pin 15.
This was preventing the EOC interrupt from working
properly.

Change from using vTaskDelay to using vTaskDelayUntil to
ensure that we're trying to stay periodic rather than
just waiting a fixed amount of time after each loop of
processing.

No functional changes.
The closing comment on some of the USB_HID related
ifdefs was outdated. Fixed.

The resultant error could range from -360º -> +360º
Since this is only used for Helicopters / multi rotors, and the aircraft can rotate in any direction, I added the modulo logic so that it is now from -180º -> +180º this should now take quickest path to correct the error.

The Wiki (http://wiki.openpilot.org/Unit_Standards) states this should be 0 - 360º
Made the code match the wiki.

This creates a new UAVObject called GPSSatellites to hold
information about which satellites the GPS receiver can see
and the quality of their signals.
NMEA GSV sentences are now parsed. The full set of GSV data
may be split across multiple GSV sentences, each containing
info for at most 4 satellites. Once an entire set of GSV
records has been collected, the GPSSatellites UAVObject is
updated.

Remove asserts on bad data, only assert on coding errors.
Remove unnecessary inline qualifier to reduce code size.
Handle more lat/lon precisions in conversion to fixed-point.
