We're still using mostly the same aircraft selection as we have before
we added squadrons: the closest aircraft is the best choice.
This adds an option to obey the primary task set by the campaign
designer (can be overridden by players), even if the squadron is farther
away than one that is capable of it as a secondary task.
I don't expect this option to live very long. I'm making it optional for
now to give people a chance to test it, but it'll either replace the old
selection strategy or will be removed.

There doesn't appear to be any reason for us to be poking at
implementation details here aside from changing the name from "unit" to
"building" for that case. Just iterate over the known strike targets.
Making this change uncovered some latent type errors.

Flag is only controlled from the command-line because redoing Qt layout
usually breaks things. Off by default in 6 since this feature is nowhere
near done enough to even be used experimentally (most changes to the ATO
made after the sim begins will break the game).

We can always estimate a startup time now. Remove the nullability from
the result, cleanup the callsites, and eliminate
TotEstimator.mission_start_time since it no longer does anything useful.
- Add the new airassault mission type and special flightplans for it
- Add the mission type to airbase and FOB
- Add Layout for the UH-1H
- Add mission type to capable squadrons
- Allow the auto planner to task air assault missions when preconditions are met
- Improve Airlift mission type and improve the flightplan (Stopover and Helo landing)
- Allow Slingload and spawnable crates for airlift
- Rework airsupport to a general missiondata class
- Added Carrier Information to mission data
- Allow to define CTLD specific capabilities in the unit yaml
- Allow inflight preload and fixed wing support for air assault
Instead of giving an error when a mission type which was added to the squadron is not defined in the Ai autoplanner db for the aircraft the user should be able to task the aircraft accordingly.
A serverconfig.env (or just environment variables) can be set to
override the default bind address/port for the backend. This is passed
to the front end as a query parameter.
The React UI running in a browser can't connect to the backend without
punching a hole for CORS, which isn't done by default. We don't need the
API key to protect from browsers, and anything else running on the
user's machine that can access the backend (that's hosted on only
localhost) already has enough control to do damage without using
Liberation as an attack vector.

This gets us out of the business of maintaining our own icons. The
milsymbol library generates the SVG data needed to display anything
covered by APP-6.
- The SA-8 LD unit hat the SA-13 unit name as variant. The Layout tried to create a SA-13 SHORAD Site but actually used an SA-8 LD unit instead with zero threat range. This resulted in a yellow marked GroundObject on the map
- Cleaned up the treat and radar range functions a bit
This is briefly moving us over to my fork of pydcs while we wait for
https://github.com/pydcs/dcs/pull/206 to be merged. The adaptation is
invasive enough that I don't want it lingering for long.
