Add a scalable .deb packaging framework for VOXL2, built on the
existing cmake/package.cmake CPack infrastructure. The framework
handles multi-processor boards by having the POSIX (_default) build
own the .deb and pull in the companion SLPI build's artifacts.
Board-specific files:
- cmake/package.cmake: CPack variable overrides (name, deps, version)
- cmake/install.cmake: install() rules for all .deb contents
- debian/postinst: px4-* symlinks, DSP signature, directory setup
- debian/prerm: service stop, symlink cleanup
- debian/voxl-px4.service: systemd unit (after sscrpcd)
Infrastructure changes:
- cmake/package.cmake: hook for board-specific CPack overrides
- platforms/posix/CMakeLists.txt: hook for board install.cmake
- Makefile: %_deb pattern rule (build _default, then cpack -G DEB)
- CI: auto-discover _deb targets, collect .deb artifacts, upload
to GitHub Releases
Future boards: add cmake/package.cmake + cmake/install.cmake and
CI discovers it automatically. No new file formats or tools needed.

Read companion_targets files from board directories and exclude those
targets from CI grouped builds. The parent target builds them via
Make prerequisite, avoiding redundant CI jobs.

airframes.xml and all_events.json.xz on the px4-travis S3 bucket have
been stale since October 2025 because package_build_artifacts.sh had
wrong paths for both files after the migration from metadata.yml to
build_all_targets.yml.
- airframes.xml: SITL builds produce it under docs/, not at the build
root (only NuttX does that). Use explicit file checks to try both.
- all_events.json.xz: was copied flat into artifacts/$build_dir/ but
the _general section expected it under events/. Preserve the
subdirectory so the copy to _general/ actually finds the file.
- Remove duplicate cp lines that were misleadingly commented as
"ROS 2 msgs".
- Fail with an error when critical _general metadata files are missing
rather than silently producing incomplete artifacts.
Also uploaded fresh metadata to S3 manually to unblock Flight Review.

Add CI enforcement of conventional commit format for PR titles and
commit messages. Includes three Python scripts under Tools/ci/:
- conventional_commits.py: shared parsing/validation library
- check_pr_title.py: validates PR title format, suggests fixes
- check_commit_messages.py: checks commits for blocking errors
(fixup/squash/WIP leftovers) and advisory warnings (review-response,
formatter-only commits)
The workflow (.github/workflows/commit_checks.yml) posts concise
GitHub PR comments with actionable suggestions and auto-removes them
once issues are resolved.
Also updates CONTRIBUTING.md and docs with the conventional commits
convention.

os.scandir() returns entries in non-deterministic order, which caused
voxl2-slpi to sometimes build before voxl2_default (which it depends
on). Sort all os.scandir() calls lexicographically by name so the
shorter prefix voxl2 always precedes voxl2-slpi.
Fix generate_msg_docs.py IndexError when a .msg file declares a single
topic that does not match the camel_to_snake default (e.g.
AuxGlobalPosition.msg). The error message referenced self.topics[1]
(out of bounds) instead of self.topics[0].
Fix camel_to_snake() regex to correctly convert names like
"AuxGlobalPosition" to "aux_global_position". The previous regex
produced "aux_globalposition" because it failed to insert an underscore
between a lowercase letter and an uppercase letter mid-word.
Also remove stderr redirection (2>&1) from all make targets in
metadata_sync.sh so that errors are visible in CI logs even in
non-verbose mode, making failures easier to diagnose.

Remove modalai_voxl2 and qurt from CI exclusion lists and add
container overrides to use the private ghcr.io/px4/px4-dev-voxl2
image which contains the Qualcomm Hexagon SDK.
- Add voxl2 build group with x64 runner for cross-compilation
- Add GHCR credentials to workflow for private container pull
- Add packages:read permission to workflow
- Auto-build libfc_sensor.so stub during cmake configure
- Handle missing .px4/.elf gracefully in artifact packaging

- Add safe.directory + fetch-depth: 0 for container jobs
- Support workflow_dispatch in metadata-regen and deploy-aws
- Guard PR comments against fork PRs
- Add ccache save to pr-metadata-regen
- Use metadata_sync.sh --generate --sync instead of manual steps
- Fix msg_docs source path in metadata_sync.sh
- Guard set-version against non-release branches
- Clean up build-site needs list

Add conditional metadata generation for PRs that modify both docs and
source files. This fixes broken link checker reports when a PR adds a
new module and documents it simultaneously - previously the link checker
would fail because metadata files are only generated on push to main.
Changes:
- Add docs-orchestrator.yml workflow with:
- detect-changes job to check if PR touches source paths
- pr-metadata-regen job that generates metadata and uploads as artifact
- link-check job that downloads metadata artifact when available
- build-site job for VitePress site generation
- deploy-aws and crowdin-upload jobs for push events
- Prettier formatting step before auto-commit on push
- Add Prettier for markdown formatting:
- Add prettier ^3.2.0 as devDependency in docs/package.json
- Add docs/.prettierrc with prose-preserving config
- Remove normalize_whitespace from metadata_sync.sh (Prettier handles
whitespace normalization now)

fix setting incorrect bit in hrt timer register
- hrt running as expected, but on startup the pwm_out driver starts up
at about 200Hz and then rises over a minute or so 250Hz. Not sure if
this was present previously, and could be due to Wifi running at time
priority on timer 0
