Ekos log

SUMMARY

After meridian flip, if guiding calibration fails, Ekos just sits idle and does not retry anything.
See the log after 2020-08-15T00:54:47.275.

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Have a job with track+focus+align+guide that crosses the meridian. Meridian flip is enabled.
2. Wait until transit.
3. Guider loses the guide star while in the 'DEC drifting reverse...' stage.

OBSERVED RESULT

Nothing happens.
After 2 minutes I clicked the Guide button and it picked up from there and continued running the schedule.

EXPECTED RESULT

It should retry the guiding or step back and restart the whole job.
