Removes busywait for simulation state packet, dramatically reducing CPU usage. The dominant wait time in AP_Periph is 1024 microseconds as this is the default value of HAL_PERIPH_LOOP_DELAY_US, so a 1ms wait is unlikely to be a problem.

I'd like to know this is OK with either quad-can or quadplane-can flying with a SIM_SPEEDUP of 5 |

Tested quad-can with a SIM_SPEEDUP of 5 on the vehicle. Connected over Ethernet to be sure (the sim actually wouldn't start without a network connection), and the vehicle moves fast as if it were moving at 5x. Everything seemed to look quite stable. The desired vs. actual attitude control in a log looks beautiful, both matching well and not showing instability. |
