AP_Scripting: add send named float binding

[IamPete1]

This allows scripts to send named floats, this is useful for streaming interesting numbers to the GCS

ArduPilot/MissionPlanner#2346

rebased, I still think this is very useful and we don't have the direct MAVLink method yet

That's actually on my to be rebased and merge within the next month list... If I get it rebased can you test it?

@WickedShell happy to test, I still think this method deserves its own binding, its very useful for debugging.

I guess once the general MAVLink stuff is in I'd rather not, simply to try and minimize flash consumption, and reduce the general overhead we impose on every script. I can give a straight example of sending a named float though, which could be easily used in other scripts. (I know, obligatory include comments here)
