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.

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 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.

1. Added reenumeration function and call it on USB init (device will appear after reprogramming now)
2. Moved buffer.c to general flight/Libraries location
3. Removed the 62 byte transmission limitation by adding a transmission buffer
4. Sped up USB communication by increasing endpoint polling frequency
Note, that the nonblocking and blocking USB send functions are not blocking entirely correcting. The blocking calls the nonblocking, and the nonblocking blocks until the last chunk has started tranmission if it's a big transmission. The buffering I added would generalize to non-blocking nicely, but would require using the EP1(IN) callback to handle most of the tranmission. This creates a lot of issues if one function is pushing data onto the buffer and the interrupt is sending.

This object is not yet populated or used. This
will soon hold the raw position data from the GPS
receiver. PositionActual will be converted to
hold the computed position from the AHRS.
Contents of this object are still subject to change.

This is to align the object names to matches the UAVObject
architecture doc. No functional changes.

The modules were disabled for some reason in r1172.
This just turns them back on for the real targets.
git-svn-id: svn://svn.openpilot.org/OpenPilot/trunk@1237 ebee16cc-31ac-478f-84a7-5cbb03baadba
- Added FlighSituation Module (development module for sensor fusion, mostly stub, possibly renamed later)
- Added Navigation Module (development module for navigating towards a point in space - DEVELOPMENT CODE, NOT STABLE YET (I am testing around with this))
- Changed Stabilization Module (uses local reference frame now. Stable except for code cleanup/review. Tested in simulator and outperforms old code.)

The Attitude module will soon be handling updates for all UAVObjects
that require data from the AHRS. To reflect this expansion of scope,
it has been renamed to AHRSComms.

This object currently only holds the serial number of the attached
AHRS board. This will be retrieved each time communications are
(re)established with the AHRS board.
This will eventually be extended to hold some statistics for OP to
AHRS comms.
git-svn-id: svn://svn.openpilot.org/OpenPilot/trunk@1008 ebee16cc-31ac-478f-84a7-5cbb03baadba
This object currently holds only the raw magnetometer readings and
an instantaneous heading calculation which are only really useful
for debugging. The contents of this object will change often as
development progresses.
Note: The magnetometer values are often garbage due to a problem
with i2c software on the AHRS.

This defines the SPI message format as well as a few
initial messages for moving data across the link.
The v0 messages are place holders for firmware download
in the bootloader.
The v1 messages are to be used by the main application.
Note: This is not the final protocol definition.
Subject to change without notice.
git-svn-id: svn://svn.openpilot.org/OpenPilot/trunk@1004 ebee16cc-31ac-478f-84a7-5cbb03baadba
Added support for SPI slave configurations to the pios SPI layer.
Converted the board specific configuration for the PIOS SPI layer to
use const static initializers rather than #defines (see pios_board.c).
SPI interface between the OP board and the AHRS is now operational at
a basic level, capable of moving simple single byte messages between
boards. Multi-byte, CRC protected messages will be added on top of this.

Split the floss-jtag.cfg file into separate versions
for OP and AHRS.
Push AHRS onto non-default ports for gdb, tcl and
telnet.
Update the AHRS gdb setup script to point at the new
gdb port.
Add (commented out) example sytax to support distinguishing
between multiple floss-jtag boards that don't have serial
numbers. Uses the usb bus address of each device as the
selector. See this patch posted to the openocd mailing list
for how to add this functionality to openocd:
