Dominic Clifton 420ba7d2c9 Fix HoTT telemetry to use a 3ms delay between each transmitted byte.
This has fixed HoTT telemety data on my GR-24, previously it was a bit
intermittent.

This commit also marks a test-point, HoTT works on UART2.

Dominic Clifton 032202ef8f BUGFIX - Cleanup failsafe system so it works correctly with Serial RX
systems and Parallel PWM/PPM systems.

Added setting for failsafe_max_usec.  Renamed failsafe_detect_threshold
to failsafe_min_usec.

Failsafe now detects when a PPM/PWM RX isn't sending ANY data out on
CH1-4.  See documentation notes regarding Graupner receivers in
Failsafe.md.

Documented failsafe system.

Dominic Clifton 21207ca940 Improvement: Add support for upto 18 channels. Allow RSSI to be read
from any channel, not just AUX1-4.

See documentation changes in this commit.

Dominic Clifton 5d460766e9 RXMSP is no longer a serial rx provider since it uses MSP and not it's
own dedicated serial port.
Added a feature to enable/disable RX_MSP.
Renamed feature SERIALRX to RX_SERIAL.
Renamed feature PARALLEL_PWM to RX_PARALLEL_PWM
Renamed PPM to RX_PPM.

Update serial configuration checking to better support Serial RX and
telemetry by verifiying serial port features and supported baud rates.

It's now possible to use a low-speed serial rx provider via softserial -
only problem is all the current serial rx providers are 100000/115200
baud.  The code changes however open the door for using serial rx and
any capable serial port such as uart3-5 on the STM32F30x

It's also now possible to use GPS at low speeds on software serial
ports.
