**Describe problem solved by this pull request** When taking off without a home… position, RTL is impossible, even if good GPS data is obtained just after takeoff. **Describe your solution** If another horizontal aiding source is available, the original home location can be back-computed as soon as a GPS lock is available. If no aiding source is available, a home position can be set at the current location. Given that this will only occur when flying LOS, doing an RTL to this position is a reasonable choice. Enable the functionality by setting `COM_HOME_IN_AIR = 1` **Describe possible alternatives** Always set the home position to the current position as back-computing could be worse if the local estimate wasn't good. **Test data / coverage** Gazebo SITL tests with the Iris optical flow: takeoff with flow, move, enable GPS fusion (EKF2_AID_MASK), trigger RTL -> the vehicle goes back to the takeoff location. ![Screen Capture_select-area_20201020132824](https://user-images.githubusercontent.com/14822839/96596091-a41edd00-12ec-11eb-9736-e7f7e40d4832.png)

Fixed-wing position control: remove manually triggered climbout mode

**Describe problem solved by this pull request** Currently, there is a hard-cod…ed limit of 85% on the pitch stick (pulling) setpoint that triggers the climbout mode when flying in fixed-wing position or altitude controlled mode. The vehicle will then give max throttle and try to climb as fast as physics allow. This prevents a precise, but still dynamic control of the vehicle, as it is impossible to climb fast without entering the climbout mode, that was (I believe) originally implemented rather as a safety feature. **Describe your solution** ~Add parameter to disable climbout mode via sticks (boolean).~ Remove the manually triggered climbout mode (pitch stick below 85% in altitude/position controlled flight). Note that this doesn't have any impact on the automatically triggered climbouts during fixed-wing handlaunch or runway takeoff. **Describe possible alternatives** - ~Instead of a boolean "climbout enabled" the parameter could be a float, specifying the threshold where the climbout mode is entered (currently that would be 0.85).~ - We could also change the trigger for the climbout: Instead of only pulling on the throttle stick, the user would have to push the airspeed stick to the maximum for example. Then the user could still climb fast without entering climbout mode if he wants that. **Test data / coverage** Flight tested, felt much nicer, especially on vehicles with a lot of excessive power (e.g. tiltrotor).
