* Updated Irondome support to IDF Assets Pack V1.1, which includes the David's Sling.
* Added an Israel 2017 faction with the David's Sling.
* IDF Assets Pack air defence presets and assets are now correctly removed from the faction when the mod is disabled.
* Removed the Iron Dome mod rocket launchers:
- "9M22U - 122mm Grad"
- "9M27F - 229mm Uragan"
- "9M55F - 300mm Smerch"
These were added to the Iron Dome Mod V1.2 in order for the radar to recognize them and be able to intercept them (these are limitations of DCS), so new rockets were added. However, they don't exist in the IDF Assets Pack.
* IronDome to IDF-Assets migration

* Added F/A-18E/F Super Hornet AI Tanker mod support (Chiller Juice Studios SuperBug Tanker AI version 1.1).
* Updated F/A-18E/F Super Hornet AI Tanker mod support (Chiller Juice Studios SuperBug Tanker AI) to version 1.2.
* F/A-18E/F Super Hornet AI Tanker (version 1.2) support merged to Retribution.
* Updated the pydcs extension to version 1.4.
This property affects safe compat because the ID is what gets preserved
in the save, but it's unfortunately also used as the display name, which
means changing the display name breaks save compat. It also prevents us
from changing display names without breaking faction definitions.
This is the first step in fixing that. The next is adding a separate
display_name property that can be updated without breaking either of
those.
* Added a separate Doctrine page in settings with the following new options:
- Minimum number of aircraft for autoplanner to plan OCA packages against
- Airbase threat range (nmi)
- TARCAP threat buffer distance (nmi)
- AEW&C threat buffer distance (nmi)
- Theater tanker threat buffer distance (nmi)
Implemented handling for the OPFOR autoplanner aggressiveness in objectivefinder.py vulnerable_control_points().
* * Added three new options in Settings:
- Autoplanner plans refueling flights for Strike packages
- Autoplanner plans refueling flights for OCA packages
- Autoplanner plans refueling flights for DEAD packages
Fixed a bug in faction.py where F-16Ds were not correctly removed from the faction when the F-16I/F-16D mod was not selected.
* Renamed Maximum frontline length -> Maximum frontline width.
We want other pieces of country information (in particular the short
names). This cleans up a lot of code anyway.
As an added bonus, this now catches squadrons that used invalid names
which would previously be passed through to pydcs and... then I don't
know what would happen.
* Don't generate runway data for heliports.
Fixes https://github.com/dcs-liberation/dcs_liberation/issues/2710.
* Remove dead code.
* Implemented support for Chiller Juice Studios F/A-18E/F/G Super Hornet mod
The Chiller Juice Studios Super Hornet mod works like this: it changes the stock F/A-18C Hornet into F/A-18E/F/G Super Hornet / Growler. The exact variant is selected with argument 999 in the livery description.lua, which is why I chose to add the three variants in the FA-18C_hornet.yaml. This way, we can use the squadrons mechanism in Liberation to select the appropriate variant by specifying the correct livery for the squadron.
Current properties injected are wingspan / width and the custom ordnance added by the mod.
Added F/A-18E/F/G banner by Schmokedpancake and F/A-18F icon.
Resolves https://github.com/dcs-liberation/dcs_liberation/issues/2681
* Added a separate loadout file for the Chiller Juice Studios F/A-18E/F/G Super Hornet mod. Currently only replaces the FPU-8A fuel tanks with FPU-12s.
* Added the possibility to use the AI variant of the F/A-18C in campaigns, allowing different loadouts and in the future, the Super Hornet mod alongside legacy Hornets in the same campaign.
* Updated Chiller Juice Studios F/A-18E/F/G Super Hornet mod support to version 2.0. Removed the 1.x version property and pylon injection since they are no longer necessary, since 2.0 adds the Super Hornet variants as separate aircraft. For the same reason, removed the AI-only F/A-18C from the faction files (still retained the aircraft yaml, loadout files and icon/banner in case someone still wants to use it).
Includes F/A-18E/F/G banner by Schmokedpancake, loadouts by @sgtfuzzle17 and F/A-18E/F icons.
* Added Super Hornet, Growler squadrons and Growler banner by @sgtfuzzle17
The squadrons include the model of the airframe in their name, so they can be referenced directly from campaign yaml files without the risk of conflicting with the same squadron of a different era, flying a different airframe.
Also updated the E and G model icons.

* Anti-ship loadouts are now named properly.

Updated the VSN F-4 mod support to v2.8.1.01 Standalone + 29Jan23 Patch, which adds the land based F-4C variant. Includes banner by Datoneslav (used with permission) and the official VSN logo (also used with permission).
Added support for F-16D Barak Block 30 and Block 40 variants. Still using F-16C Barak banners as placeholders until I snap some good ones from the two-seaters.
Resolves#78
Forcegroups were not loaded correctly from preset groups during faction initialization. When a user created a new game and directly after that created another game with different factions the Forcegroups for the preset groups were still reused and therefore units which were not accessible by the faction were accidently available to the new faction.
