This doesn't do anything yet, but sets up the data model handling for
frozen combat. The next step is to show combat in the map view, since
that will be helpful when debugging the step after that one: resolving
frozen combat.
This would benefit from caching the Shapely data for SAM threat zones.
Right now it's generating them once per tick and the stuttering is
visible at max speed.

CPU load seems to scale with route length, so add an option to limit
the length of the convoy route. The tradeoff is that the performance
sensitive route won't necessarily be a correct route.
* Initial refueling definitions.
* Adding refuel definitions.
* Initial functionality changes
* Regenerate package when adding refueling flight.
* Recursively change package waypoint.
* Fix mypy errors.
* Regenerate flight plans when tanker is added to package.
* Give tanker better starting position on package recovery.
* Add TOT calculation for refueling waypoint.
* Timing changes to Strike split point and Refueling start time.
* Add correct waypoint builder for refuel in tarcap and sweep. Remove restrict afterburner on refuel point.
* Always generate a refuel point for a package.
* Less arbitrary altitude in Refuel track start time calculation.
* Refueling waypoint no longer optional.
* Fix mypy gen error.
* Better discrimination of which tanker flight plan to make.
* Remove refuel tot calculations.
* Remove package regeneration on tanker flight addition.
These should be uncontrolled rather than late activation so that they
are present in the parking area as OCA targets. This bug was introduced
as a mistranslation when I was moving from strings to StartType.

This was set to default on by mistake (turned on for debugging and
forgot to turn off before check in). The option itself may be going away
soon in favor of explicit buttons, but keep the experimental feature off
by default for now.
There's nothing the user can do about this and it's somewhat expected,
so downgrade to a warning so users don't think it's a bug.
If we ever get around to doing more cautious parking allocation this
should become a generation-halting error, but until then we expect it to
happen somewhat often.
This is the first step in a larger project to add play/pause buttons to
the Liberation UI so the mission can be generated at any point.
docs/design/turnless.md describes the plan.
This adds an option to fast forward the turn to first contact before
generating the mission. None of that is reflected in the UI (for now),
but the miz will be generated with many flights in the air.
For now "first contact" means as soon as any flight reaches its IP. I'll
follow up to add threat checking so that air-to-air combat also triggers
this, as will entering a SAM's threat zone.
This also includes an option to halt fast-forward whenever a player
flight reaches a certain mission-prep phase. This can be used to avoid
fast forwarding past the player's startup time, taxi time, or takeoff
time. By default this option is disabled so player aircraft may start in
the air (possibly even at their IP if they're the first mission to reach
IP).
Fuel states do not currently account for distance traveled during fast
forward. That will come later.

This really shouldn't need to happen but I don't feel like rewriting the
culling code right now. There's no reason for these to be persisted to
the Game at all, we should be generating these once they're needed.
This adds metadata to settings fields that can be used to automatically
generate the settings window. For now I have replaced the Difficulty
page. Will follow up to replace the others.
CAS would never be planned for turn 0 because there were no enemy ground
units, so a breakthrough attack was planned and CAS was considered
unnecessary. Fix that by rejecting all frontline stance tasks when there
are no *friendly* ground units to command.
Another issue is that CAS missions were being planned even when there
were no enemy front line forces. Skip planning in that case except on
turn 0 since we expect there to be enemy ground units on turn 1.
