Summary

Delete SITL's --param (aka -P) feature, which is broken anyway.

Testing (more check increases chance of being merged)

  • Checked by a human programmer
  • Tested in SITL
  • Tested on hardware
  • Logs attached
  • Logs available on request
  • Autotest included

Supplying --param or -P to a SITL command fails & prints usage, as expected:

~/ardupilot/ArduCopter$ ../build/sitl/bin/arducopter --param FOO=BAR
Options:
	--help|-h                display this help information
	--wipe|-w                wipe eeprom
  <...>

This confirms the expected change, as before this PR it responds:

Unknown parameter FOO

Context

This resolves issue #6114 .
It is the replacement for PR #32158 .
