Downside to the current implementation is that whether or not transports
that were purchased last turn will be available for airlift this turn is
arbitrary. This is because transfers are created at the same time as
units are delivered, and units are delivered in an arbitrary order per
CP. If the helicopters are delivered before the ground units they'll
have access to the transports, otherwise they'll be refunded. This will
be fixed later when I rework the transfer requests to not require
immediate fulfillment.

A CP with a factory would be able to supply itself, but was not in a
supply route if it was the only connected friendly CP. When the player
starts with only one base against an enemy base this meant that it was
in no supply route, causing it to not be a recruitment location or a
place to buy more than a reserve of vehicles automatically.
This adds the models and UIs for creating ground unit transfer orders.
Most of the feature is still missing:
* The AI doesn't do them.
* Transfers can move across the whole map in one turn.
* Transfers between disconnected bases are allowed.
* Transfers are not modeled in the simulation, so they can't be
interdicted.

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

(cherry picked from commit 7d907aac0f644f55bda42ec916eb2be054aefcf5)
Repairing a damaged runway costs $100M and takes 4 turns (one day). The
AI will always repair runways if they can afford it. if a runway is
damaged again during the repair the process must begin again.
Runways are still operational despite what the UI says. Preventing the
player and AI from using damaged runways (except for with helicopters
and harriers) is next.
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.

Mission planning has been completely redone. Missions are now planned
by right clicking the target area and choosing "New package".
A package can include multiple flights for the same objective. Right
now the automatic flight planner is only fragging single-flight
packages in the same manner that it used to, but that can be improved
now.
The air tasking order (ATO) is now the left bar of the main UI. This
shows every fragged package, and the flights in the selected package.
The info bar that was previously on the left is now a smaller bar at
the bottom of the screen. The old "Mission Planning" button is now
just the "Take Off" button.
The flight plan display no longer shows enemy flight plans. That could
be re-added if needed, probably with a difficulty/cheat option.
Aircraft inventories have been disassociated from the Planner class.
Aircraft inventories are now stored globally in the Game object.
Save games made prior to this update will not be compatible do to the
changes in how aircraft inventories and planned flights are stored.
