fixes #14704

The hover thrust estimator (HTE) starts to run after the first thrust setpoint is published. Until then, the feedforward of the vertical velocity controller was unitialized (= 0). This is now set to hover thrust parameter until the estimate is available.

Tested in SITL:

After
2020-04-20_14-06-40_01_plot
