bresch 0aa4afdbce ekf2: add unaided_yaw for more resilient yaw control
This estimate doesn't converge to the true yaw but can be used as a
more consistent but drifting heading source.
It can be used by a setpoint generator to adjust its heading setpoint
while the true yaw estimate is converging in order to keep a constant
course over ground.
