This appears to be incompatible with pyinstaller. I get the following
when trying to run the executable generated with pyside6:
```
Traceback (most recent call last):

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.

The AI isn't making use of these yet, but it's not smart enough to do so
anyway.
Would benefit from an icon to differentiate it on the map.
I'm stretching the definition of "control point" quite a bit. We might
want to put a class above `ControlPoint` for `AirSpawnLocation` to
represent types of spawn locations that can't be captured and don't have
ground objectives.

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.
We were only getting BARCAP results right in BARCAP packages. This
fixes calculations of TOTs and start times for BARCAPs in strike
packages.
The probably needs some refactoring. BARCAP is just the symptomatic
example at the moment, but the real problem is that different mission
profiles exist and we currently only handle one. Making profiles
explicit in mission planning will clean this up, will be needed for
other future mission types, and makes it easier for us to alter
behavior for waypoint and timing decisions based on the aircraft or
mission type.
Also fixes the CAP racetracks so the AI actually stays on station.
Waypoint TOT assignment happens at mission generation time for the
sake of the UI. It's a bit messy since we have the late-initialized
field in FlightWaypoint, but on the other hand we don't have to reset
every extant waypoint whenever the player adjusts the mission's TOT.
If we want to clean this up a bit more, we could have two distinct
types for waypoints: one for the planning stage and one with the
resolved TOTs. We already do some thing like this with Flight vs
FlightData.
Future improvements:
* Estimate the group's ground speed so we don't need such wide margins
of error.
* Delay takeoff to cut loiter fuel cost.
* Plan mission TOT based on the aircraft in the package and their
travel times to the objective.
* Tune target area time prediction. Flights often don't need to travel
all the way to the target point, and probably won't be doing it
slowly, so the current planning causes a lot of extra time spent in
enemy territory.
* Per-flight TOT offsets from the package to allow a sweep to arrive
before the rest, etc.
