Description

#### Issue details
Please do not show RC failsafe message on HUD when my flight is on AUTO or GUIDED mode while the FS_OPTIONS parameters say to one of the followiing:

bit 0 set: Continue if in auto mode on Radio Failsafe
bit 2 set: Continue if in guided mode Radio Failsafe

Reason: I do the long range flights, I do need the radio to take off and land manually close to home. But when I am in the air I execute the mission and my quad is flying away to the mission and I do not want to see the FAILSAFE message across entire flight. Thanks.

Research direction

Start by tracing the Mission Planner HUD handling for Copter RC failsafe messages and inspect how the FS_OPTIONS bits are interpreted for AUTO and GUIDED modes. Reproduce the reported behavior, then verify that the failsafe message is hidden only when the corresponding continuation option applies and remains visible otherwise.
