Solved Problem
A separate magnetometer bias estimator was added as it was not safe to activate the mag bias estimation of earlier EKF2 versions. This is now solved and having 2 different estimator affecting the mag biases adds a lot of unnecessary complexity.
Solution
Use EKF2 mag bias estimates only (also for autocal).
Changelog Entry
For release notes:
Test coverage
Tested on a Pixhawk 4 (internal mag only).
