Publish vessel pose via MAVLink #2

Open clydemcqueen opened 3 months ago

Publish the vessel pose (GLOBAL_POSITION_INT, ATTITUDE) via MAVLink, using a different system id (e.g., 2).

I believe that QGC will display and log it.

I did some experiments publishing GLOBAL_POSITION_INT with sysid=2.

I'm a bit worried about making QGC mad... this might cause grief in the field.

I'm pausing this in favor of writing csv logs instead -- this will help us understand the data and make some decisions.
