[GPS Trekkinng] Altitude showing wrong values

The bug

In the app GPS Trekking the altitude is korrekt only when there is no gps fix. If a gps fix comes in the displayed altitude differes much from the barometric altitude (simple to compare with "altimeter widget")

I would expect that on the bangle2 the gps altitude is ignored totaly in this app.

And the altitude-gain is counting in the wrong direction. climbing up ist displayed in "Down" and vice versa.

Thanks

Sounds like a patchable option, tagging @halemmerich for interest

Thanks for mentioning me. I am currently pretty short on time, probably for at least ~18 years or so, so I won't tackle this myself, but I am happy to review any changes made. I think it worked at one point, but there may have been other changes since than causing this.
