This change comes as a result of hearing a lot of confusion from new pilots when setting up modes. Amongst the fixed wing community in general, position hold is referred to as loiter. In fact, everywhere else in inav, the settings for this mode on fixed wing are referred to as loiter too, For example, loiter direction, loiter change, and loiter radius. It makes sense to change the wording of the mode in the modes tab to loiter too. This does not effect anything as far as the navigation or functionality goes. It is a visual change only.
