AP_Rally: Minor fixes to AP_Rally after initial testing
...
- If a Rally point is being used, always respect the altitude set by the
user (don't take the max of that and the home point altitude).
- No need for constructor to pass in size of RallyLocation struct

AP_NavEKF : Increased position gate default to reduce impact of accel errors
...
Flight testing with windup turns has shown that the position gate threshold
can be tripped with good GPS data causing position jerks. This increases the
initial GPS glitch rejection threshold to effectively 5m when using the
default POSNE_NOISE value of 0.5m.

AP_NavEKF : Enable calc of wind velocity when not using airspeed sensing
...
This patch also cleans up the logic associated with use of the synthetic
sideslip measurement so that it can never be used for a non fly-forward
vehicle type
This patch adds functionality that initialises the wind-speed vector to the
reciprocal of the ground speed vector, and scaled to 6 m/s. On average this gives
a better initial wind velocity estimate on launch by assuming:
a) launch will be into wind
b) wind speed is equal to global average
It also helps prevent a headwind causing initial underestimation of airspeed
causing high autopilot gains and limit cycles on climb-out, until first
turn when the EKF is able to estimate the wind.

- Implements hardware logging of GPS health and baseline messages
Forthcoming iin future updates:
