quick-and-dirty HORIZONTAL_COORD patch

When an INDI device sends a setNumberVector command with
name="HORIZONTAL_COORD", the crosshair is shown at an unreasonable location:
not the location specified by the device, sometimes not even on the celestial
sphere!

A small patch is attached.  This is a quick-and-dirty patch, written by someone
who hasn't read any kstars developer documentation, so don't trust it blindly;
it may introduce other bugs.  It does, however, make kstars's behavior _seem_
much more reasonable, in the simple ad-hoc tests that I've tried.

P.S. I tried to exercise good bug report etiquette, by reporting against the
current development version instead of an old Debian version.  But I found that
the current build instructions don't work, so I went back to the Debian
version.

The page

https://techbase.kde.org/Projects/Edu/KStars/Building_KStars_KF5

says to run the command

sudo apt-get install build-essential cmake git libeigen3-dev libcfitsio-dev
zlib1g-dev libindi-dev extra-cmake-modules libkf5plotting-dev libqt5svg5-dev
libkf5iconthemes-dev libkf5xmlgui-dev kio-dev libkf5init-dev kinit-dev
libkf5newstuff-dev kdoctools-dev libkf5notifications-dev

, which fails on "libkf5init-dev".  Here is packages.debian.org's response to a
search for libkf5init-dev:

You have searched for packages that names contain libkf5init-dev in all suites,
all sections, and all architectures.
