• plugin: sys_status: publish state msg after updating uas Before this commit, the custom mode string published in the state message was computed using the autopilot type from the previous heartbeat message--not the autopilot type from the current hearbeat message. Normally that isn't a problem, but when running a GCS and mavros concurrently, both connected to an FCU that routes mavlink packets (such as APM), then this causes the custom mode to be computed incorrectly, because the mode string for the GCS's hearbeat packet will be computed using the FCU's autopilot type, and the mode string for the FCU's heartbeat packet will be computed using the GCS's autopilot type.
