--- This module contains the GROUP class.
-- 
-- 1) @{Group#GROUP} class, extends @{Controllable#CONTROLLABLE}
-- =============================================================
-- The @{Group#GROUP} class is a wrapper class to handle the DCS Group objects:
--
--  * Support all DCS Group APIs.
--  * Enhance with Group specific APIs not in the DCS Group API set.
--  * Handle local Group Controller.
--  * Manage the "state" of the DCS Group.
--
-- **IMPORTANT: ONE SHOULD NEVER SANATIZE these GROUP OBJECT REFERENCES! (make the GROUP object references nil).**
--
-- 1.1) GROUP reference methods
-- -----------------------
-- For each DCS Group object alive within a running mission, a GROUP wrapper object (instance) will be created within the _@{DATABASE} object.
-- This is done at the beginning of the mission (when the mission starts), and dynamically when new DCS Group objects are spawned (using the @{SPAWN} class).
--
-- The GROUP class does not contain a :New() method, rather it provides :Find() methods to retrieve the object reference
-- using the DCS Group or the DCS GroupName.
--
-- Another thing to know is that GROUP objects do not "contain" the DCS Group object.
-- The GROUP methods will reference the DCS Group object by name when it is needed during API execution.
-- If the DCS Group object does not exist or is nil, the GROUP methods will return nil and log an exception in the DCS.log file.
--
-- The GROUP class provides the following functions to retrieve quickly the relevant GROUP instance:
--
--  * @{#GROUP.Find}(): Find a GROUP instance from the _DATABASE object using a DCS Group object.
--  * @{#GROUP.FindByName}(): Find a GROUP instance from the _DATABASE object using a DCS Group name.
--
-- ## 1.2) GROUP task methods
--
-- A GROUP is a @{Controllable}. See the @{Controllable} task methods section for a description of the task methods.
--
-- ### 1.2.4) Obtain the mission from group templates
-- 
-- Group templates contain complete mission descriptions. Sometimes you want to copy a complete mission from a group and assign it to another:
-- 
--   * @{Controllable#CONTROLLABLE.TaskMission}: (AIR + GROUND) Return a mission task from a mission template.
--
-- ## 1.3) GROUP Command methods
--
-- A GROUP is a @{Controllable}. See the @{Controllable} command methods section for a description of the command methods.
-- 
-- ## 1.4) GROUP option methods
--
-- A GROUP is a @{Controllable}. See the @{Controllable} option methods section for a description of the option methods.
-- 
-- ## 1.5) GROUP Zone validation methods
-- 
-- The group can be validated whether it is completely, partly or not within a @{Zone}.
-- Use the following Zone validation methods on the group:
-- 
--   * @{#GROUP.IsCompletelyInZone}: Returns true if all units of the group are within a @{Zone}.
--   * @{#GROUP.IsPartlyInZone}: Returns true if some units of the group are within a @{Zone}.
--   * @{#GROUP.IsNotInZone}: Returns true if none of the group units of the group are within a @{Zone}.
--   
-- The zone can be of any @{Zone} class derived from @{Zone#ZONE_BASE}. So, these methods are polymorphic to the zones tested on.
-- 
-- ## 1.6) GROUP AI methods
-- 
-- A GROUP has AI methods to control the AI activation.
-- 
--   * @{#GROUP.SetAIOnOff}(): Turns the GROUP AI On or Off.
--   * @{#GROUP.SetAIOn}(): Turns the GROUP AI On.
--   * @{#GROUP.SetAIOff}(): Turns the GROUP AI Off.
