  remove scaling from rate feedback (#1601)

Currently gains from rate control do not carry over to attitude stabilization, 
because there is a factor 2 in the rate control and prescaler values (factor 3 
for rate) in the attitude control. I searched through the airframes, and there 
are not many that use rate control. I doubled all the gains and removed rate 
control for bebop, as rate control over datalink is very difficult due to lag.

The prescaler values should also be default 1 for stabilization quat_int, as 
they already are for float_quat. However, this will mean updating a large 
amount of airframes, which will require some scripting. I might have time for 
this later.
