[Therion] Development 5.4.1+4369eea inverts and recolours altitude legend

[Ladislav Blažek]

Hi,

upside-down notation is maybe more natural in other cases but for maps it is IMO against unwritten standard for altitude legend.

I agree with Henry and Bruce. But maybe we could make it configurable via some parameter in layout config.
