In some cases e.g.: (VTOL in wind) a good tracking cannot be
achieved. This condition then needs to be relaxed, otherwise the
drone cannot land properly.
This allows to still fly missions completely without RC
but reacts if RC is lost during the mission because
the safety pilot expects to be able to take over.
Instead of directly doing the link loss reaction which by default is RTL a delay
can be configured such that the drone first switches to hold and waits
for the link to be regained.
As hardware buttons are not particularly reliable and the user flow is to disable safety then arm, then disarm via software / remote, it makes sense to make the button safety state itself sticky and require it to be reset via software.

For some usecases like starting video recording on a companion computer or triggering a ROS based (offboard control) mission control execution the status of RC channel is needed in ROS(2). This allows the user to start/stop such functionalities from the RC transmitter.
Therefore InputRc to be changed accordingly.
add 'Set send: true' for id: 30
- vehicle_attitude_setpoint thrust_body is a vector, but mavlink ATTITUDE_TARGET thrust is only a magnitude
- this allows the stream to be correct for both MC & FW use cases
This will ensure that the CRCs will match with deployed units to avoid unnecessary incompatibilities while we are figuring out how to best standardize these between stakeholders.
- currently the main change is that it reduces the max number of ORB multi instances to 4, but usage will be expanded as needed
- limits number of EKF2 multi instances to 2.
- enabled on all cortex m4 boards
