Problem Description
When running Software-In-The-Loop simulations, executing the simulation faster than realtime allows quicker iterations on development. This is already utilized in PX4 SITL Gazebo and jmavsim, and the mavlink HIL Sensor messages already support it.
Solution
This enables setting the realtime factor with environment variable PX4_SIM_SPEED_FACTOR to allow faster than realtime execution of the simulation. This environment variable is already used for other simulators for faster than real time execution.

Testing
To test, you can set the environment variable on execution.
