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.
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.
* 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

such that fixed wing position controller can distinguish from other types

* 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.

* mission_base: reset inactivation index when user set a new mission index, or mission is reset.
* mission_base: check Climb required always on current mission item
For FW takeoffs we need to keep the course straight towards the first
waypoint, and not climb in loiter patterns first.

Dataman: Add write function to dataman cache.
RTL and mission have a new common base class mission_base. Both inherit from them and mission, RTL mission, and rtl reverse mission inherit from them and implement their desired functionalities. This simplifies the logic in mission as well as make the logic in rtl mission reverse and mission more readable.
Rtl mission reverse now functional again for VTOL flying back the mission and transitioning to MC at the home position.
Dataman cache has new write functionality to write to dataman while updating write item in its cache if necessary.
Dataman cache is now only updated when the respective module is active. Leads to a higher computation time once on activation, but decreases unnecessary cache updates when inactive.
