Matthias Grob 0d66981dcc Remove MPC_USE_HTE and always use hover thrust for altitude control (#24751)
* Remove `MPC_USE_HTE` and always use hover thrust for altitude control

Note the separate module can still be not run but I have not seen a case where the hover thrust estimate is not useful for altitude control hence I don't expect anyone to have the parameter disabled or planning on not running the module.

This parameter was used to experimentally introduce the hover thrust estimator. First it was just logging its status and you could opt in to use it:
f9794e99f8
but soon after it became the default and you had to opt out of using it:
a8063ac948
AFAIK we haven't seen problems requiring to disable it in the last 5 years and hence I suggest to remove the parameter to reduce the configuration space.

* Update src/modules/land_detector/MulticopterLandDetector.cpp
