3efdbe9fd3 docs(sim_sih): link Hawkeye visualizer, add stub page (#27159)
* docs(sim_sih): link Hawkeye visualizer, add stub page

Replaces jMAVSim display-only mode references in the SIH page with Hawkeye,
which is purpose-built for this role and actively maintained. The 3D
visualization section now covers the hawkeye command, the port alignment
with SIH (UDP 19410), and links out to the full Hawkeye documentation.

Adds a short sim_hawkeye/index.md stub covering what Hawkeye is, install
on macOS and Linux, and basic SIH usage. Everything else (multi-vehicle,
ULog replay, HUD modes, CLI reference) lives at px4.github.io/Hawkeye
and is linked from the stub, so PX4 docs don't carry the maintenance
burden of two parallel sources.

Also updates the port reference table: UDP 19410 is now labeled
"Hawkeye visualizer" instead of "jMAVSim display-only", and adds the
page to SUMMARY.md nested under SIH Simulation.

* docs(update): subedit

9adda29da2 docs(sim): add Try PX4 quick-start and pre-built packages reference (#26957)
Adds documentation for the SITL containers and .deb packages introduced in #26495. The containers are now live on Docker Hub: [`px4io/px4-sitl:latest`](https://hub.docker.com/r/px4io/px4-sitl) and [`px4io/px4-sitl-gazebo:latest`](https://hub.docker.com/r/px4io/px4-sitl-gazebo).

The main addition is a [Try PX4 Simulation](https://docs.px4.io/main/en/dev_setup/try_px4) page that leads with a single `docker run` command and gets someone flying in under a minute. It lives in Getting Started, right after Recommended Hardware/Setup, so it's one of the first things new users see.

The existing `.deb` package reference has been moved from `packaging/px4_sitl_deb.md` to `simulation/px4_sitl.md` and expanded to cover both containers and `.deb` packages on one page. Sections are ordered by how people use them: what's available, install, configure, connect QGC/MAVSDK, connect ROS 2.

Other changes:
- README now has a "Try PX4" section with the docker one-liner above "Build from Source"
- Landing page (`index.md`) reworked to lead with "Try PX4" before "For Developers"
- Toolchain page (`dev_env.md`) gets a tip redirecting simulation-only users to pre-built packages
- `getting_started.md` and `SUMMARY.md` updated with links to the new pages
- Simulation index tip updated to mention containers alongside `.deb` packages

The SIH container image is published as `px4io/px4-sitl` (renamed from `px4io/px4-sitl-sih`) so the default lightweight option carries the simplest name. The Gazebo image remains `px4io/px4-sitl-gazebo`.

Also upgrades all GitHub Actions in the SITL workflow to Node.js 24 compatible versions (`actions/checkout@v6`, `actions/cache@v5`, `actions/upload-artifact@v7`, `actions/download-artifact@v8`, `docker/setup-buildx-action@v4`, `docker/build-push-action@v7`) to fix the Node.js 20 deprecation warning ahead of the June 2026 deadline.

4b2e0a6f59 feat(sensors/gps): add per-receiver GPS delay parameters (#26660)
* sensors: add per-receiver GPS delay parameters

Add SENS_GPS{0,1}_DELAY params to vehicle_gps_position, following the
same device-ID matching pattern used for antenna offsets. Each receiver
can now have its own measurement delay relative to the IMU.

The delay is applied to timestamp_sample before blending. When PPS time
correction is active it takes priority over the parameter-based delay.
When a GPS driver already provides its own timestamp_sample the
per-receiver delay is not applied on top of it.

* fix(ekf2): remove EKF2_GPS_DELAY and perform param transation

* fix(param_translation): fix GPS param migration return values

Add missing return for EKF2_GPS_POS_Z and remove incorrect return for
EKF2_GPS_DELAY (1-to-many migration should not return PARAM_MODIFIED).

* fix(sensors,ekf2): rename pps_compensation and clarify delay default

* fix(ekf2): account for SENS_GPS*_DELAY in observation buffer sizing

* fix(docs): migrate EKF2_GPS_DELAY param

fa2d1c3662 SIH Simulator: Add wind (#26467)
* SIH: explicitly use local velocity for all aerodynamic calculations

no functional change

* SIH: add param & vars for wind and apparent vel

no functional change

* SIH: replace all relevant vels with apparent vel

Only places where _v_E is remaining:
 - ecefToNed to calculate _v_N
 - generate_rover_ackermann_dynamics
 - equations_of_motion
 - parameters_updated, init_variables
and _v_N:
 - ecefToNed
 - print_status
 - publish_ground_truth
 - generate_rover_ackermann_dynamics
 - equations_of_motion
 - parameters_updated, init_variables

which are all not relevant for aerodynamics.

* sih: wind review suggestions

* sih wind: switch direction to global wind source direction convention

* SIH: clean up variable declarations

* SIH: rename variables for consistency

* docs: SIH: document new wind parameters

* Release notes: note for SIH wind settings
