  Log Message:
  -----------
  [autopilot] group tasks and improve timing

- some tasks are grouped in a gnc group as they should be called
in sequence: estimation, control, default, actuators
- the timing between the sensors and gnc is half of the main period, it
correspond to the default resolution of the sys_time virtual timers
- the timing of AP threads is improved with a calculated wakeup time
instead of a fixed sleep time
- the monitor task for fixedwing is moved in the firmware specific
autopilot part and called by a module
- all timings have been accurately tested with high speed log and a
dedicated profiler for ChibiOS
