Started with TARCAP because they're simple, but will follow and extend
this to the other flight plans next.
This works by building navigation meshes (navmeshes) of the theater
based on the threat regions. A navmesh is created for each faction to
allow the unique pathing around each side's threats. Navmeshes are built
such that there are nav edges around threat zones to allow the planner
to pick waypoints that (slightly) route around threats before
approaching the target.
Using the navmesh, routes are found using A*. Performance appears
adequate, and could probably be improved with a cache if needed since
the small number of origin points means many flights will share portions
of their flight paths.
This adds a few visual debugging tools to the map. They're disabled by
default, but changing the local `debug` variable in `DisplayOptions` to
`True` will make them appear in the display options menu. These are:
* Display navmeshes (red and blue). Displaying either navmesh will draw
each navmesh polygon on the map view and highlight the mesh that
contains the cursor. Neighbors are indicated by a small yellow line
pointing from the center of the polygon's edge/vertext that is shared
with its neighbor toward the centroid of the zone.
* Shortest path from control point to mouse location. The first control
point for the selected faction is arbitrarily selected, and the
shortest path from that control point to the mouse cursor will be
drawn on the map.
* TARCAP plan near mouse location. A TARCAP will be planned from the
faction's first control point to the target nearest the mouse cursor.

Creates threat zones around airfields and non-trivial air defenses (it's
not worth dodging anything with a threat range under 3nm). These threat
zones can be used to aid mission planning and waypoint placement.

Not converting all at once so I can prove the concept. After that we'll
want to cover all the cases where an int distance or speed is a part of
the save game (I've done one of them here with `Flight.alt`) so further
cleanups don't break save compat.

Moves all TOT planning into the FlightPlan to clean up specialized
behavior and improve planning characteristics.
The important part of this change is that flights are now planning to
the mission time for their flight rather than the package as a whole.
For example, a TARCAP is planned based on the time from startup to the
patrol point, a sweep is planned based on the time from startup to the
sween end point, and a strike flight is planned based on the time from
startup to the target location. TOT offsets can be handled within the
flight plan.
As another benefit of theis cleanup, flights without hold points no
longer account for the hold time in their planning, so those flights are
planned to reach their targets sooner.
As a follow up TotEstimator can be removed, but I want to keep this low
impact for 2.3.2.

Just emit the signal to update the budget rather than trying to figure
out the heirarchy of the UI.

(cherry picked from commit 7d907aac0f644f55bda42ec916eb2be054aefcf5)
* Introduce a real type.
* Rewrite _transform_point to make use of Point.
* Add shift modifier for large (10 pixel) adjustements to reference
points. Unmodified behavior is now single pixel.
* Use WASD for moving the second point (shift modified numpad keys don't
seem to work).
* Add a debug option to draw transformed reference points to check for
errors. If they don't overlap, something is wrong.
* Cleaned up all the existing reference points. Caucasus in particular
is now *much* better.
As an added bonus, the cleanup for carrier movement projection now also
shows an invalid destination when the destination is on land.
This way the results of committing the debriefing can't alter the view
of the debriefing. It looks like it was probably that case that
debriefing information displays (but not the committed results) would be
incorrect after a base capture because the results might be shown after
the results were committed.

This didn't do what it claimed to (it actually just determines the
threshold for whether a control point shoudl be a *preferred* canidate
for purchasing ground units), and the income multipliers offer the
intended behavior.
To have an effect on turn zero these need to be enabled in the wizard.
Since the last page was getting quite full I've split it into two pages:
one for the objective generation options and a second for the difficulty
and player assist options.
I also added an option to set the inital budget for opfor.
The allows the players to use the same auto-purchase mechanics that the
AI uses. The behavior is very bad, but it's no worse than what OPFOR
deals with.
There's a lot that needs to be improved before this is really a good
choice for the player:
* Option to adjust budget balance between front lines and airbases.
* Disallow negative budgets (which incidentally will cause more aircraft
to be purchased, since the armor purchases currently accidentally
spend the aircraft budget).
* Buy less randomly: https://github.com/Khopa/dcs_liberation/issues/361.
* Obey parking limits.
* Use the delivery events rather than instant delivery (also allows the
player to cancel orders they don't want).
Fixes https://github.com/Khopa/dcs_liberation/issues/362
This adds both player and enemy income multiplier options. Note that
previously the AI was only getting 75% of their income. I've changed
that to give them their full income by default since the player can now
influence it.
