Added support for absolute distance altimeter or for range finders mounted on a gimbal such that they are always vertical. No need to rotate from body to earth frame.
Used in case of absolute distance provided, no matter of which orientation the copter have.
Be careful that the max limit in roll/pitch to have a valid measure is still active.
A parameter (EKF2_RNG_ABS) is used to enable this feature.
WARNING: requires also the pull request in PX4/ecl with the appropriate modifications to EKF lib.
WARNING2: I was able to see the param in QGC, but I wasn't able to see the meta. Probably it's a QGC cache problem. Double check that metadata is correct.
