always return enum instance in Strategy Selector
For some reason on DEFENSE, enum is appended to control point stance,
but on all other the enum.value is added instead.
I don't see any case where the value is used, but there are many
cases that the enum instance is evaluated against.

junja's not a thing

Previously we were trying to make every potential flight plan look
just like a strike mission's flight plan. This led to a lot of special
case behavior in several places that was causing us to misplan TOTs.
I've reorganized this such that there's now an explicit `FlightPlan`
class, and any specialized behavior is handled by the subclasses.
I've also taken the opportunity to alter the behavior of CAS and
front-line CAP missions. These no longer involve the usual formation
waypoints. Instead the CAP will aim to be on station at the time that
the CAS mission reaches its ingress point, and leave at its egress
time. Both flights fly directly to the point with a start time
configured for a rendezvous.
It might be worth adding hold points back to every flight plan just to
ensure that non-formation flights don't end up with a very low speed
enroute to the target if they perform ground ops quicker than
expected.
Somehow this constant was wrong so all of our foot-to-meter
conversions were coming out ~7% too large. We're still introducing
some error because we're rounding early rather than only when we need
an integer, but it's much more accurate now.
- dcsLiberation.installPath does not include "state.json" anymore
- corrected behavior :
- try LIBERATION_EXPORT_DIR
- then try dcsLiberation.installPath
- then try TEMP
- then try working directory
- corrected multiple bugs in dcs_liberation.lua
- corrected bad string.format causing DCS crashes in
jtacautolase-config.lua
Weather and exact time of day information is helpful during mission
planning, so generate it at the start of the turn rather than at
takeoff time.
Another advantage aside from planning is that we can now use the wind
information to set carrier headings and takeoff runways appropriately.
- load plugins when loading a game
- moved plugins scripts to resources/plugins (for pyinstaller)
- removed vanilla JTAC and JTAC_smoke options and settings GUI
- call JtacAutolasePlugin in armor.py
- made a dictionary of INSTALLED_PLUGINS
- removed NIOD from the VEAF plugin
- the base LUA functionality has been implemented as a mandatory plugin
- the jtacautolase functionality has been implemented as a plugin
- added a VEAF framework plugin
The plugins have GUI elements in the Settings window.
When the mission is aborted the pending mission is still in the event
list, which is part of the game option. That event has a reference to
the operation, which in turn contains all the mission generator
objects. Two of these objects are the radio/TACAN allocators, which
use a generator to track the next free channel. Generators cannot be
picked, so because these are transitively part of the game object the
game cannot be saved.
Aside from the briefing generator, none of those objects are
actually needed outside the generation function itself, so just make
them locals instead.
This probably needs a larger refactor at some point. It doesn't look
like we need so many calls into the operation type (it has an
initialize, a prepare, and a generate, and it doesn't seem to need
anything but the last one). The only reason breifinggen needs to
remain a part of the class is because the briefing title and
description are filled in from the derived class, where title and
description should probably be overridden properties instead. I'm also
not sure if we need to make the event list a part of game at all, and
also don't think that the mission needs to be one of these events.
