Home Direction Visualization

[GoogleCodeExporter]

Instead of an arrow showing the direction to home it would be more intuitive to 
have a moving diamond that represents the home location.
For example, if heading directly toward home, the diamond would be in the 
center of the screen. If home was 45 degrees to the left of current heading 
than the indicator would be 1/4 in on the screen. For values greater than 90 
degrees an arrow will show on either the left or right side of the screen 
showing which way to to turn to point towards home.

This was the best feature of the DJI iOSD system, and should be possible with 
minimOSD hardware. I looked at the source code trying to understand PanHomeDir 
and haven't been able to make sense of it.

To each there own, IMO it would be a pain to have to look for this little 
diamond vs just seeing the arrow. I honestly think you can't get much simpler 
then an arrow telling you where to go.  I have not used the DJI system though 
so I could just be missing the "feeling", as an option why not except problem 
is the space required for the code etc.  It would be neat if code could be 
customized and compiled on the go, as brought up before then the options would 
be even greater
