correct WGS84 semi minor axis value. #1310

It appears the GSR80 value was used instead of the WGS84 value, which is a very small error. However, there was a typo in the value in GPS_Math_XYZ_To_WGS84LatLonH that resulted in an order of magnitude error! This could lead to GPS_Math_XYZ_To_WGS84LatLonH never converging. This may be why skytraq created their own function to convert ECEF to WGS84.
