Summary

This patch fixes a rendering bug in wavemap's Rviz plugin that appears when using the TopDownOrtho ViewController.

Detailed description

Wavemap's Rviz plugin uses Level of Detail (LoD) rendering to improve Rviz's frame rate when displaying large maps. The LoD level for each rendered block is selected based on its distance to the camera, but this does not work when using orthographic projection (TopDownOrtho mode). This patch ensures that the highest LoD level is used in this mode. We plan further optimizations in future development cycles.
