This module shows the geodesic sections hit by the samples collected during
compass calibration, and also some status data. The objective of this module is
to provide a reference on how to interpret the field `completion_mask` from the
MAG_CAL_PROGRESS mavlink message. That information can be used in order to
guide the vehicle user during calibration.

The plot shown by this module isn't very helpful to the end user, but it might
help developers during development of internal calibration support in ground
control stations.
