Description

In API Level 34 Google introduced https://developer.android.com/reference/android/location/Location#getMslAltitudeMeters().
If available it should be used as altitude source to get consistent results on all platforms.

Public API Changes

Should be either the new default for Android or an option in GeolocationRequest and GeolocationListeningRequest.

Intended Use-Case

This change would make getting GPS altitude consistent on all platforms without manually correcting it.
