priseborough 4eb19c2324 AP_NavEKF: Rationalise health status reporting
1) Un-used public methods to report height and position drifting have been removed
2) A time-out has been added to the airspeed innovation consistency check so that if we are relying on airspeed to constrain velocity drift, a filter divergence or other fault that causes the airspeed to be continually rejected will trigger a change in health status.
3) A timeout of velocity, position or height measurements does not cause a filter fault to be reported. Timeouts can be due to sensor errors and do not necessarily indicate that the filter has failed.
4) Time-outs of various measurements are used to present a consolidated bitmask which inidicates which parts of the solution can be used, eg attitude, height, velocity, relative position, absolute position, etc.

Andrew Tridgell c93ae67541 DataFlash: don't try and open logfile on failure more than once
this prevents a corrupted microSD card from causing a continuous
attempt to open a log file while in flight, which can cause large
scheduler delays

priseborough f2c506339a AP_NavEKF: Reduce time required to recover from GPS timeouts
The time required for GPS to be lost or rejected before vehicles with airspeed sensors either reset to GPS or invoke the zero side-slip assumption to constrain drift has been reduced from 15 to 10 seconds
A duplicate zeroing of the GPS position offset has been removed
If the vehicle is a non hovering vehicle (eg a plane) then the speed at which the GPS offset is pulled back to zero after a reset is increased from 1 to 3  m/s

This also improves recovery from bad inertial data for planes

priseborough f6ce25df2a AP_NavEKF: Do not reset vertical velocity state from GPS
Doing this can cause large height and height rate errors if large GPS velocity errors cause the GPS tn be rejected for long enough to cause a timeout and reset of states.
