Only change from the uploaded files is that I increased the campaign
version to 7.0 since this doesn't use any scenery targets so has no work
to do for that.

Transports and mod aircraft added where needed cleaned up various
duplicates in factions.
(cherry picked from commit dba70dc6d54d678c6d019fe15940c5fae70cd77d)
Mod selection is now done via checkbox in the new game wizard.
The MB-339 is being turned into a paid module, and the free mod no longer works, so it's been removed.
Greece has C-130s and Patriots. They don't have the E-3 but they do have
AEW&C via the ER-99, which isn't in DCS so just use an E-3 to pretend.
Also remove the Hawk radar as an EWR since we have the P-19 which is
better.
This Pull Request lets users plan Tanker flights.
Features:
- Introduction of `Refueling` flight type.
- Tankers can be purchased at airbases and carriers.
- Tankers get planned by AI.
- Tankers are planned from airbases and at aircraft carriers.
- Tankers aim to be at high, fast, and 70 miles from the nearest threat.
(A10s won't be able to tank)
- Tankers racetrack orbit for one hour.
- Optional Tickbox to enable legacy tankers.
- S-3B Tanker added to factions.
- KC-130 MPRS added to factions.
- Kneeboard shows planned tankers, their tacans, and radios.
Limitations:
- AI doesn't know whether to plan probe and drogue or boom refueling
tankers.
- User can't choose tanker speed. Heavily loaded aircraft may have
trouble.
- User can't choose tanker altitude. A-10s will not make it to high
altitude.
Problems:
- Tanker callsigns do not increment, see attached image. (Investigated:
Need to use `FlyingType.callsign_dict`, instead of just
`FlyingType.callsign`. This seems like it might be significant work
to do.).
- Having a flight of two or more tankers only spawns one tanker.
- Let me know if you have a solution, or feel free to commit one.
