Refocus diagram

# Reason for the request
Shooting nebulae in narrow band I often move manually the telescope to a closer
bright star for focusing so I can get a faster focuser procedure. When I start
a sequence, if I reach the focus limits (Refocus every x minutes, Autofocus if
ΔT° > x, etc.) the procedure often fails because no sufficient stars are found.

# Proposal
I’d like to see a new parameter in preferences: “Focus magnitude limit” for
refocusing, then if a refocus is required, KStars could search for the closer
star or stars cluster brighter than “Focus magnitude limit” using the
observation planner module and focus on it.
