Show warning if powersave mode is/ get's enabled #776

Enabling powersaving mode usually disables the GPS and thus no track is recorded. At least, we should show a warning to the user.

Would it be possible to show the user a warning if a lot of points are being discarded due to location inaccuracy? Inaccurate location signal and overzealous power saving can both lead to gaps in the recorded track and as a user it's hard to tell what's happening

@ph818 good idea! This was not a high priority so far though.
