* Commander: make low remaining flight time configurable and do not clear
- add _ACT param to disable/warning/RTL this feature
- publish rtl flight time estimate also in RTL, and thus fix re-validation
- make failure message clearer, distinguish from battery low
* battery check: add hysteresis for declaring battery_low_remaining_time false again

We need to make sure that when the RTL is triggered, it should not reevaluate it, as when it was valid but evaluated to false on activation, it can't do a RTL.
We had a special handling for RTL triggered in vtol_takeoff state.
The idea is to wait until the VTOL Takeoff is completed and only
then switch to RTL. On a second thought this special handling isn't
really necessary and for the sake of simplicity should be removed.
This also removes the side effect of the indicated flight mode
after RTL being set to VTOL_Takeoff again.

MissionBase did not initialize its mission data, thus could enter an
infinite loop in updateDatamanCache() if the initMission() failed to
read the mission off, for example, due to the SDCard storage task taking
longer than the timeout to respond.
This change constrains the loading loop and resets the mission data even
if the data write failed.
The setpoint.yaw can be NAN, and this made the calculated land point NAN
as well. Looking at the current yaw is anyway a better way to approximate
the course over ground that fundamentally should be used.

ADd a new misison feasiblity checker option to check if a proper landing approach is defined when in air. There must be at least a mission landing or a VTOL approach defined in order for the mission to be accepted. Else, use the same logic as in MIS_TKO_LAND_REQ=4
-remove RTL_HDG_MD
-only set heading setpoint in Navigator::RTL once above landing point,
or when RTL is triggered close to it
-never set a heading during RTL if weather vane is enabled

* avoid waypoint following during backtransition
- if vehicle overshoots transition, make controller track the prev/current
waypoint line, this avoids large banking maneuvers that delay the transition further

When handling multiple commands, it could happen that the first command
updates _reposition_triplet. Normally this would then get handled after
getting the mode change from commander through vehicle_status.
But if the next command is handled before an update from commander, it
could overwrite the triplet.
This patch ensures that navigator waits for an update from commander (and
therefore process the _reposition_triplet) before handling the next
command.
This happened specifically when pressing 'Pause' from QGC during a mission.
QGC sends VEHICLE_CMD_DO_REPOSITION twice, first for pausing, then changing
the altitude.
The result was that the vehicle would not stop at the current location but
continue to the next mission waypoint and stop there.
This check gave a warning when one or more mission items were below the
Home altitude. As it is a valid usecase to plan missions below Home,
those warnings were too often seen as a inconvenience and are thus
removed here.

With this margin it is made sure that if the loiter is not perfectly tracked,
(vehicle outside of path setpoint) a wp just at the border of the loiter
is still reachable.
It should though be as small as necessary, as otherwise, with good
loiter tracking, waypoints that are close but not right on the loiter
radius are not enforcing the exit course neither.

* PositionSetpoint: remove yaw_valid field
* Navigator: set yaw setpoint to NAN for Takeoff
Don't set a yaw setpoint for takeoff, as Navigator doesn't handle the yaw reset.
The yaw setpoint generation is handled by FlightTaskAuto.
* PositionSetpoint.msg: remove disable_weather_vane and instead only use the yaw field
Strictly follow the concept that if the position_setpoint.yaw is set, then
follow it the controller, and otherwise let the controller set it as it
thinks it's best.
* Navigator: remove logic that sets yaw to be accepted in TAKEOFF
No longer needed as during Takeoff we anyway don't set a yaw setpoint.
* PositionSetpoint.msg: remove yawspeed_valid
* PositionSetpoint.msg: remove yawspeed
* Navigator: set yaw setpoint to NAN instead of current
In set_takeoff and set_land_item, as well as for VTOL transition.
The flight tasks then set the yaw corresponding to the current yaw.
* Navigator: change get_yaw_acceptance into a bool
* PositionSetpoint.msg: improve comment for yaw
* MissionBlock: remove unnecessary code from set_vtol_transition_item
* Navigator: clean up calculate_breaking_stop(), set yaw to NAN
* Navigator: set yaw to NAN in variouls places where not specifc setpoint is desired
* Navigator: set yaw to NAN in reset_position_setpoint()

It is generally preferred to have the camera pointing forward on pause,
e.g. to use the camera for Navigation.
