LTVCon:

Path: Orbit/OrbitManeuver

% Solve the Linear Terminal Velocity Constraint problem.
   dr/dt = c1 + c2*vH where vH is the horizontal velocity and c1
   and c2 are constants

   Since version 2.

   Inputs
   ------
   r0            (3,1)   Initial position vector
   r             (3,1)   Final position vector
   c1            (1,1)   Constant
   c2            (1,1)   Constant
   orbitType     (1,:)   'direct' or 'retrograde'
   mu            (1,1)   Gravitational parameter (default is the earth)
