Set this flag to true if local position is valid but accuracy low, such that
the operator can be warned before system switches to position-failure failsafe.
Additionally, switch to RTL if currently in Mission or Loiter to try to reach home
or fly out of GNSS-denied area.
Set low accuracy threshold to 50m by default for FW and VTOL.

Replace the existing check for the availability of a takeoff mission item with a combined
check for takeoff and landing item (or landing pattern). New param MIS_TKO_LAND_REQ
can be set to require only a takeoff, only a landing, both takeoff and landing, and
both or none. The latter is meant to be set if is e.g. deemed unsafe to start a flight
through a Takeoff WP without though defining a Landing - as then in case of a RTL the
vehicle doesn't follow a pre-defined path but instead only can do default RTL that especially
for FW and VTOL isn't always safe.

For most VTOLs the param defaults for the agressiveness of the MC attitude controller
are too high, as VTOLs usually have high intertia and lot af drag due to wings and
can thus not rotate as fast as MCs.

I think most vehicle can safely decend with at least 1.5m/s, and having this
value too low makes Descents/Landings/RTLs unnecessary long.

The VTOL default was set to 1, while the param default is 1.5.
I don't see why it shuold be a different default for VTOLs and thus remove it.

- set MAV_TYPE as a parameter default per vehicle type, or airframe if necessary
- cleanup MAV_TYPE param metadata and commander helper to only include
what's currently used in PX4
based on our experience with VTOL it makes sense to change the yaw mode default. You always want your VTOL to yaw in transition direction before starting the transition.
@fury1895 reported very valuable feedback from testing
the acceleration feed-forward on VTOL:
> MPC_JERK_MAX 4.5 (from 5 on it felt too aggressive)
> MPC_JERK_AUTO 4
> some hovering, some transitions, and a mission. Everything good.
> I'd say you feel the difference in position mode and you see it in
> Auto modes. Great improvement!
Updated the babyshark default parameters for improved flight performance,
as well as two MPC parameters in vtol_defaults for smoother hovering with VTOLS"
