  [flight_plan] add binding to ABI messages from flight plan

This feature allows to create an automatic binding to a ABI message
while specifying the list of variable names ('_' are ignored).
A local (static) variable is updated to the latest value each time a new
message is received and it can be read in any flight plan instruction.

Example of usage:

 <variables>
  <abi_binding name="VELOCITY_ESTIMATE" vars="_, vx, vy, vz, _"/>
 </variables>

please not the in this example, the first and the last variable are
ignored but the number of variable must match the number of fields in
ABI messages description (conf/abi.xml).

An extra attribute 'id' allows to set a specific sender ID (by default
ABI_BROADCAST).
