When a state stops to be estimated it becomes a "consider state". Its value and variance are frozen but its covariance with other states continue to evolve normally.
- removes conservative accel bias variance limiting
- force symmetry is skipped after fusion of NED vel/pos (a direct measurement)

- fake_pos only if at rest or tilt variances becomes large
- fake pos: don't run when grav fusion is enabled
- gravity fusion enabled by default
- gravity: only fuse when accel norm and lpf norm are consistent

- when GNSS is used require low mag heading innovations during
horizontal acceleration (yaw observable) to validate the mag
- only fuse mag heading just enough to constrain the yaw estimate
variance to a sane value. Leave enough uncertainty to allow for a
correction when the yaw is observable through GNSS fusion
- split mag_3d into new standalone mag fusion and mag fusion allowed to update all states (full mag_3d)
- new dedicated control logic for mag/mag_3d fusion and standalone mag heading fusion
- if WMM available use for mag_I and mag_B init
- mag states reset if external yaw reset (yaw estimator, GPS yaw, etc)
- mag reset if declination changed (eliminate _mag_yaw_reset_req)
- mag fusion (but not mag_hdg or mag_3d) can be active during gps_yaw or ev_yaw (if yaw aligned north)

* ekf2-test: remove outdated codegen comparison
The definition of states changed so the comparison with the old
derivation cannot work anymore.

There is some actual changes because the earth mag field states are now
reset using the WMM when available. In the replay log, the measured mag
field does not match the WMM and this is why there is a large diff. It
is however more correct now than before.
When at rest, directly fuse the gyro data as an observation of its bias.
This allows to strongly observe the gyro biases without having to fuse a
constant heading that makes the ekf too confident about its heading.
- EKF isTimedOut(), isRecent(), and isNewestSampleRecent() need to handle the case where the timestamp has never been set
- reset() more thoroughly reset fields (mainly impacts unit tests)
- with Ekf::initialiseFilter() resetting _time_last_hagl_fuse the terrain estimate was technically valid regardless of any range or flow data availability and as a result optical flow fusion is able to start and stay active
- only consider terrain estimate valid based on control status flags and recent fusion
- working towards keeping all height source (baro/ev/gnss/rng) handling as consistent as possible, possibly refactoring these out into separate classes later
