Purpose
Add an initial soaring module, which displays the location and estimated radius of the thermal from AP's thermal soaring estimator.
Once we have a mavlink packet definition for the thermal estimator, we can move to that from NAMED_VALUE_FLOAT.
Demo
Terminal 1:
Terminal 2:
Once the vehicle hits the thermal southwest of home, it will show up on the map. You can see the estimator converge on the thermal.
