BAI is used for attacking ground vehicles as opposed to buildings like
strike does, and not air defenses like DEAD does. Unlike strike, BAI is
tolerant of moving targets.

This was also needed in other parts of the UI and is easier to implement
in the target class anyway.
Note that DEAD is now properly restricted to air defense targets.
Also added error boxes to the UI for when planning fails on an invalid
target.
Previously the only difference between these was the objective type:
TARCAP was for front lines and BARCAP was for everything else.
Now BARCAP is for friendly areas and TARCAP is for enemy areas. The
practical difference between the two is that a TARCAP package is like
the old front line CAP in that it will adjust its patrol time to match
the package if it can, and it will also arrive two minutes ahead of the
rest of the package to clear the area if needed.
Fighter sweeps arrive at the target ahead of the rest of the package
(currently a fixed 5 minute lead) to clear out enemy fighters and then
RTB.

`FrontLine` is tightly coupled with `ConflictTheater`.
Moved into the same module to prevent circular imports.
Moved `ConflictTheater.frontline_data` from class var
to instance var to allow save games to have different
versions of frontlines.
This also removes ascend/descend waypoints. They don't seem to be
helping at all. The AI already gets an implicit ascend waypoint (they
won't go to waypoint one until they've climbed sufficiently), and
forcing unnecessary sharp turns toward the possibly mispredicted ascent
direction can mess with the AI. It's also yet another variable to
contend with when planning hold points, and hold points do essentially
the same thing.

Only one target waypoint created when flight is Viggen client flight.
M Waypoints not explicitly set anymore
(they don't need to be when waypoint has a TOT)
* Move the UI code out of the plugin logic.
* Add types where needed.
* Move into game package.
* Improve error handling.
* Simplify settings behavior.
* Don't load disabled plugins.
* Remove knowledge of non-base plugins from game generation.

Was using the interval from mission start to latest rather than from
earliest to latest, so this could sometimes be off by a bit and cause
us to not generate enough start times.
The changes for Skynet unfortunately broke this because the names used
by the TGO and the name of the group itself were no longer in sync.
This deserves a larger cleanup where we decouple that naming
requirement (TGOs don't need a lot of the data they currently have),
but this works until we have the time to do that.

- B52, A-20, and Tu-22 will level bomb targets
- When there is an unit group as target, all the units are now engaged instead of only the first unit of the group
