I interpreted the "agl" level as a cooked altitude, as reported by a
cockpit annunciator, for example.  The absolute altitude of the
coordinate origin is (in principle, anyway, even if it's not available
in the property tree) easily computable from the origin coordinates
themselves.

We should definitely standardize it; if the "gear altitude" needs to
move to a different property, that's fine.
