DistanceCheck: Disable health failure reporting if the SFXX_MODE is set to 2

[KonradRudin]

Solved Problem

We have to option for the lightware laser driver to disable the sensor when in VTOL fixed wing flight. However, if the sensor is mandatory, a health failure warning appears, since no sensor data is published.

Solution

• If a distance sensor is in VTOL mode, mark the sensor as valid even when no data has arrived.
