Feature Request: Step Counter

Anyway we can get a step counter built into gpslogger?

I think this can be achieved by converting distance travelled to steps equivalents or by accessing the devices health data like iOS, not sure if this is supporting android though.

I would also really like to see this feature! The open-source Step and Height Counter probably provides a lot of the code. Ideally, GPSLogger could do what the ‘debug’-level step counter does, which is to record the timestamp to the millisecond along with the number of steps recorded when a step count event occurs, in a separate CSV—though some users may prefer total steps since the last GPS point to be logged in the same CSV. :)

I’m not a Java coder, but I think most of the relevant code can be found in SensorService.java here.

It would also be great to get barometric pressure as in #956

Thanks for the great app!
