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.
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.

`FrontLine` is tightly coupled with `ConflictTheater`.
Moved into the same module to prevent circular imports.
Moved `ConflictTheater.frontline_data` from class var
to instance var to allow save games to have different
versions of frontlines.
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.

final and buildnumber are optional files. Move them into resources to
avoid naming them explicitly.

Only one target waypoint created when flight is Viggen client flight.
M Waypoints not explicitly set anymore
(they don't need to be when waypoint has a TOT)
This still leaves a bit to be desired, namely that selling aircraft
happens immediately but buying aircraft takes a turn. However, that's
how this behaved before, so this restores the 2.1 behavior. Worth
investigating further in the future.
