AP_NavEKF: Update EKF origin height whilst disarmed

This patch causes the EKF to update the height of its origin each time it receives a valid GPs message whislt disarmed.
The resultant EKF origin height represents the height of the zero baro alt datum relative to the GPS height datum.

Flight tests have shown that the magnetic field distortion associated with flight from steel structures can extend 3m or higher. To counteract this, a second and final yaw and magnetic field alignment has been added which is activated when the height exceeds 5m for the first time.

AP_NavEKF: Filter accuracy and stability improvements
...
Improvements in PX4 firmware have reduced the computational load and mkae the previous practicwe of splitting magnetometer and optical flow fusion across multiple time steps unnecessary and make it possible to perform a covariance prediction prior to fusing data on the same time step. This patch:
1) Ensures that a covariance prediction is always performed prior to fusion of any observation
2) Removes the splitting of magnetometer fusion so that fusion of the X,Y and Z components occurs on the same time time step
3) Removes the splitting of optical flow fusion so that fusion of X and Y components occurs on the same time step
