Stick calibration enhancement request #159

It would be useful if the calibration code would automatically calculate center 
for sticks/pots that lack a defined center location (or at least if the option 
was there).   Getting the pots in exactly the same spot every time for 
calibration is not terribly easy.

Impossible to do seriously!

I actually agree with the OP!

It makes little sense calibrating the center of pots as they have no
spring-loaded return to center...
What I'd do is ignore the center values stored for the pots during the
first calibration step, and just overwrite them with (min+max/2) at the end
of the last step. Should be easy to implement.

On the X9D for example it's nearly impossible to set the slider pots to
center anyway...

Right, that's ok. Easy to do.

Done. To be tested!
