Stop sending pulses altogether on failsafe

This makes failsafe much easier to configure on the flight controller.
The previous behavior of setting all the channels to 1000 was a bit
confusing because the pulses my flight control was receiving were
already less than 1000, so going into failsafe actually raised all
channel levels until I adjusted subtrim on throttle to keep it around
1010.

With this code, it simply stops pulsing in such a way that matches what
the frsky d4r does (see below).  This is a well-known and unambiguous
path.
