Retry focus position when solution is pending, is before pass1 minimum, and HFR got worse

Hy Murveit requested to merge murveit/kstars:linear-fix1 into master

Small update to Linear Focus algorithm. One the 2nd pass, when approaching the pass1 minimum, and having already achieved a within-tolderance HFR value, previously the algorithm stopped as soon as a measured HFR was worse than the previous measurement. This update retries at the current position a few times in that situation, in case the worsening was just HFR noise.

Updated the unit test.

Tested successfully for several nights.
