Is there a reason to not get Roll, Pitch and Yaw from the EM7180 directly? #68

Reading the data sheet I found that the EM7180 can output Roll, Pitch and Yaw directly, which is what I need. Is there a reason why the code is written to take the Quaternions and then convert them to Roll, Pitch and Yaw on the host? or is it just a matter of preference?

This is just for test purposes, to compare with on-host Madwick or Mahoney filters. The EM7180 will output either quaternions or Euler angles as well as scaled sensor data.
