fix(facts): use vertical m for distance-sensor up/down ranges

[Bartok9]

Summary

• Tag DistanceSensorFact rotationPitch90 (Up) and rotationPitch270 (Down) units as vertical m.

Motivation

Plain m is treated as horizontal distance by FactMetaData. Up/down rangefinder ranges are vertical lengths; they should honor the Vertical Distance units setting. Lateral yaw ranges and min/max stay m.

Verification

• JSON parses
• Only pitch-up/down unit fields changed
• No flight/arm/geofence code paths touched

Notes

AI-assisted; human-reviewed. Spec: specs/qgroundcontrol/2026-07-17-1.md (Composer 2.5 Standard intent).
