Okay. I flipped a coin, and agl-hold won!  :-P

No, seriously: If nobody objects I will tomorrow switch all remaining 
occurrences
of terrain-follow to agl-hold in generic FlightGear files (but not in maintained
aircraft, unless the maintainer wishes so). Rationale:

 - $FG_ROOT/Aircraft/Generic/generic-autopilot.xml uses agl-hold
 - $FG_ROOT/gui/dialogs/autopilot.xml uses agl-hold (and did before my changes)
 - all /autopilot/locks/altitude options end with "-hold".
   (all heading options, too, except "wing-leveler", which is understandable)

Only $FG_ROOT/keyboard.xml and these aircraft use "terrain-follow" in at least
one *.nas or *.xml file:

 - AN-225
 - BAC-TSR2
 - A-10
 - B-52F
 - YF-23
 - seahawk
 - MiG-15
 - TU-114
 - Hunter
 - CanberraBI8
