OnMove 100 : elevation data is exported only when using the filter «FixElevation»

[GoogleCodeExporter]

# What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. Launch ./kalenji_reader with the default options
2. Launch ./kalenji_reader with «filters=FixElevation» in .kalenji_readerrc

# What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
The elevation data should be exported in both cases, regardless of the use of 
the «FixElevation» filter. However, it's only exported in the second case.
1. The first case creates a GPX file whose trackpoints lacks the <ele> tag, 
thus the elevation data. Instead of the <ele> tag, there is an empty line.
<trkpt lat="46.57969" lon="0.35498167" >

2. The second case creates a GPX file containing the elevation data (the 
attached file is the log of this session).
<trkpt lat="46.57969" lon="0.35498167" >
    <ele>96</ele>
    <time>2014-06-05T20:05:32.8Z</time>
    <extensions>
    </extensions>
</trkpt>

# What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?
Kalenji_reader from trunk rev. 282, compiled with debug flags.
Ubuntu x64 14.04

Hello,

this is normal behaviour.
OnMove100 doesn't record elevation. It is only through an API giving elevation 
of a point from its coordinates that the elevation information can be deduced.
This is what FixElevation filter does.

Therefore, with OnMove100, it's recommended to use FixElevation.

Regards,
Colin
