improve orientation sensor with gyro data
when we do our own sensor fusion, we also export an
improved orientation sensor and hide the HAL sensor.
The fused orientation sensor is much more precise, fast
and smooth.

* Notes:
*
* - what about a gyro-corrected magnetic-field sensor?
- * - option to "hide" the HAL sensors
* - run mag sensor from time to time to force calibration
* - gravity sensor length is wrong (=> drift in linear-acc sensor)
