ALT_HOLD_RTL before "go to home" #281

Hi Team! If you possible put this enhancement: when i manually select "RTL" the 
copter first go to "RTL Altitude" (vertical with gps position), then go to home 
at the same alt, and finally descend to "x" meters (new value).

Thanks to all for this nice work!!!

This is a good idea, sometimes I usually have to switch to "STB" to gain 
altitude to avoid mountains. But I don't like the final step, I prefer to 
descent in manual mode because it's not a good idea to descend vertically due 
to the turbulences generated by props.

Ok, i approve for final step... but i'm very happy if "there's a future" for 
the first step... :P
Thanks a lot!

Mark

2.1.1 includes auto-land from RTL. Just set your altitude in the MP and it will 
go directly to that altitude as it returns, then 20 seconds after reaching 
home, it will land.
