The mode executor can run land mode which updates the home position to the landing location. This
can be not the desirable behavior and the home position should stay at the original location.
A flag is added to the configuration overrides to control if the home position is updated or not.
Some modes should only be run within the context of a mode executor and the user should not be able
to select them in the GCS. With this change, the external component registration request can be
used to set if a mode is selectable or not.
This allows external modes to individually check if they are flagged as
invalid/unresponsive.
Previously this was done only based on whether or not ArmingCheckRequest
was received, which does not work when multiple modes are running.
According to the mavlink spec we should be publishing the home attitude
as a quaternion rather than just the yaw/heading.
Additionally, this allows setting the landing roll and pitch angle using
DO_SET_HOME (this yet needs to go into the MAVLink spec though).
This time including the message versioning and translation.
To separate accuracy requirements for VTOL hover and cruise.
- global_position_relaxed refers to having a valid horizontal velocity aid source
in the estimator and a set global reference position, but poses no requirements
on the accuracy of the provided position estimate.
- Auto flight modes Mission, Loiter and RTL, while in fixed-wing mode,
only require the relaxed global position going forward
- COM_POS_FS_EPH is thus no longer used on fixed-wing vehicles (resp. VTOL in FW)
- rename failsafe_flags.local_position_accuracy_low to failsafe_flags.position_accuracy_low
