28e00055ab Differentiate BARCAP and TARCAP.
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.

d369ce8847 Add fighter sweep tasks.
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.

d9056acc6d Improve hold/split/join point positioning.
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.

Fixes https://github.com/Khopa/dcs_liberation/issues/352.

Client needs to be used if there are other player slots in *any*
flight, not just the same group.
