This patch reorders px4_defines.h to make it more readable (I think)
but more importantly, cleans up the #include <math.h>/<cmath>
and [std::]isfinite stuff.
My main goal was to completely get rid of including math.h/cmath,
because that doesn't really belong in a header that is supposed to
define macro's and is included in almost every source file (if not
all).
I'm not sure what it did before ;) (pun intended), but now it does
the following:
PX4_ISFINITE is only used in C++ code (that was already the case,
but hereby is official; for C code just use 'isfinite()') and is
defined to be std::isfinite, except on __PX4_QURT because that uses
the HEXAGON toolset which (erroneously) defines isfinite as macro.
I would have liked to remove PX4_ISFINITE completely from the code
and just use std::isfinite whereever that is needed, but that would
have required changing the libecl submodule, and at the moment I'm
getting tired of changing submodules... so maybe something for the
future.
Also, all includes of <math.h> or <cmath> have been removed except
for __PX4_NUTTX. Like the HEXAGON toolset NuttX currently defines
isfinite as macro for C++. So, we could have solved this in the
same was as __P4_QURT; but since we can fix NuttX ourselves I chose
to add a kludge to px4_defines.h instead that fixes this problem,
until the time that NuttX can be fixed (again postponing changing
a submodule). The kludge still demands including <cmath>, thus.
After removal of the math header file, it needed to be included
in source files that actually need it, of course.
Finally, I had a look at the math macro's (like M_PI, M_PI_F,
M_DEG_TO_RAD etc). These are sometimes (erroneously) defined in
certain math.h header files (like both, hexagon and nuttx).
This is incorrect: neither the C nor the C++ standard defines
math constants (neither as macro nor otherwise). The "problem"
here was that px4_defines.h defined some of the M_*_F float
constants in terms of the M_* double constant, which are
sometimes not defined either thus. So, I cleaned this up by
defining the M_*_F math constants as float literals in px4_defines.h,
except when they are defined in math.h for that platform.
This means that math.h has to be always included when using those
constants, but well; not much difference there as those files
usually also need/use the macro NAN (which *is* a standard macro
defined by math.h).
Finally finally, DEFAULT_PARAM_FILE was removed as it isn't
used anymore.
All in all I think the resulting px4_defines.h is nice, giving me
much less the feeling of a nearly unmaintainable and over time
slowly growing collection of kludges and hacks.
This limits the maximum bandwidth of ulog streaming to 70% of the specified
mavlink datarate. If less is used, the leftover is assigned to the mavlink
streams, if more is used, it starts to drop.
mavlink status outputs the currently used rate, to check if a link is
saturated.
This fixes a corner case where the first advertise/publish of a
vehicle_command_ack was missed. What happened was that the
orb_subscribe_multi was not called until the topic had been published
and therefore orb_exists was happy. This means that by the time
orb_subscribe_multi was finally called, the first vehicle_command_ack
was already history and not detected by orb_check.
This changed adds a flag to the MavlinkOrbSubscription which tells it to
subscribe to a topic from the beginning.

The flow control state is improperly reflected as enabled if the arch/HAL rejects an IOCTL to turn it on. Mavlink::enable_flow_control updates _flow_control_enabled only if the IOCTL call does not fail.
This had multiple issues:
- linked list was modified while other instances were still running and
accessing it (the used linked list is NOT thread-safe).
- Mavlink instance was deleted, but it was still in the linked list, and
thus could still be dereferenced by other threads
- the instance was deleted, but it was still accessed by the 'stop-all'
calling thread
What we do now is:
- wait for all threads to exit
- then remove the instances from the linked list and delete them
