🛠️ Whitespace cleanup to quiet new blank line at EOF git hook. by mcsauder
🛠️ Jenkins: hardware print px4io status, pwm info for all outputs, pwm_out status by dagar
🛠️ boards: always change default IMU_GYRO_RATEMAX on px4_fmu-v2/v3 and mro_x21 - this can lower cpu usage considerably on older boards by dagar
🛠️ [commander: add check for VTOL airfame on fmu-v2 (#14633) * commander: add check for VTOL airfame on fmu-v2

This adds a preflight check when a VTOL airframe is configured
on a fmu-v2 where VTOL is no longer included.

commander: address code review comments](d67ecc9) by julianoes
🛠️ perf counters fix perf free and cleanup naming by dagar
🛠️ WIP: mavlink send hacks by dagar
🛠️ add home pos check into global pos check by baumanta
🛠️ PreFlightCheck: check for RC action switches by baumanta
🛠️ Jenkins: increase history for remaining builds by dagar
🛠️ commander: fix preflight check spam by julianoes
🛠️ fix param_translation: set address to 0 only on NuttX On Linux it can be non-zero. by bkueng
🛠️ vtol: do not control deceleration during backtransition manual, acro or stabilized Signed-off-by: RomanBapst bapstroman@gmail.com by RomanBapst
🛠️ boards: px4/fmu-v4pro cleanup rc.board_sensors - board has either an icm20602 or icm20608g, not both - probe all typical externally compasses by dagar
🛠️ tests: microbench uorb add sensor_gyro_fifo copy - gives an idea of the cost of copying a large message by dagar
🛠️ tests: microbenchmarks reduce iterations and sleep inbetween by dagar
🛠️ Jenkins HIL remove px4_fmu-v4_optimized - this was interesting to monitor, but slows down the entire build with only one pixracer on the test rack by dagar
🛠️ [px4_fmu-v5_stackcheck: update stack sizes and add to Jenkins - increase stack sizes to run cleanly under stackcheck
- this is likely overkill for most boards, but using stackcheck to set our minimum ensures we have a very safe margin on regular builds and it's something we can currently afford

remove holybro_durandal-v1_stackcheck from test rack (there's only one unit)](66eacd2) by dagar
