Peter BarkerandClaude Opus 5 6af0fba1f2 autotest: add tests for QuadPlane MAVLink message handling
Exercise the QuadPlane-specific parts of ArduPlane/GCS_MAVLink_Plane.cpp
which no existing test reached:

 - AVAILABLE_MODES including the VTOL modes
 - ATTITUDE_TARGET from the VTOL attitude controller
 - PID_TUNING from the VTOL rate and vertical acceleration controllers
 - HIGH_LATENCY2 target heading and altitude in VTOL modes
 - NAV_TAKEOFF and DO_VTOL_TRANSITION rejection paths, and NAV_TAKEOFF
   as COMMAND_INT
 - precision landing using LANDING_TARGET

OpenSSF Best Practices

ArduPilot is the most advanced, full-featured, and reliable open source autopilot software available. It has been under development since 2010 by a diverse team of professional engineers, computer scientists, and community contributors. Our autopilot software is capable of controlling almost any vehicle system imaginable, from conventional airplanes, quad planes, multi-rotors, and helicopters to rovers, boats, balance bots, and even submarines. It is continually being expanded to provide support for new emerging vehicle types.
