RC smoothing: improve rx frame rate detection, add rc_smoothing_info cli command

Improved the rx frame rate detection/training by delaying calculation to avoid loop time jitter during flight controller initialization.

For auto cutoffs calculate a value appropriate for BIQUAD or PT1 depending on the configuration.

Added a new rc_smoothing_info cli command to display internal details about its operation.
