After completing the new game wizard but before initializing turn 0,
open a dialog to allow the player to customize their air wing. With this
they can remove squadrons from the game, rename them, add players, or
change allowed mission types. *Adding* squadrons is not currently
supported, nor is changing the squadron's livery (the data in pydcs is
an arbitrary class hierarchy that can't be safely indexed by country).
This only applies to the blue air wing for now.
Future improvements:
* Add squadron button.
* Collapse disable squadrons to declutter?
* Tabs on the side like the settings dialog to group by aircraft type.
* Top tab bar to switch between red and blue air wings.
Test cases:
1. Target is not threatened.
The IP should be placed on a direct heading from the origin to the
target at the max ingress distance, or very near the origin airfield
if the airfield is closer to the target than the IP distance.
2. Unthreatened home zone, max IP between origin and target, safe
locations available for IP.
The IP should be placed in LAR at the closest point to home.
3. Unthreatened home zone, origin within LAR, safe locations available
for IP.
The IP should be placed near the origin airfield to prevent
backtracking more than needed.
4. Unthreatened home zone, origin entirely nearer the target than LAR,
safe locations available for IP.
The IP should be placed in LAR as close as possible to the origin.
5. Threatened home zone, safe locations available for IP.
The IP should be placed in LAR as close as possible to the origin.
6. No safe IP.
The IP should be placed in LAR at the point nearest the threat
boundary.
This will allow expert users to disable the automatic MissionScripting.lua replacement. There are many warnings and errors which have to be ignored to achieve this because DCS Liberation will not work with unmodified MissionScripting.lua
Much of the UI was using the old budget which wasn't removed from Game
like it should have been when Coaltion was introduced. The UI displayed
(and in some cases pulled from) the starting budget rather than the real
budget.
The only parts of the old weapon data that worked well (didn't commonly
result in empty pylons) did this implicitly, so make the grouping
explicit.
This also moves the data out of Python and into the resources, which
both makes the data moddable and isolates us from a huge amount of
effort and a save compat break whenever ED changes weapon names.
I didn't auto migrate the old data since the old groups were not
explict and there's no way to infer the grouping. Besides, since most of
the weapons were *not* grouped, the old data did more harm than good in
my experience. I've handled the AIM-120 and AIM-7 for now, but will get
at least all the fox 3 missiles before we ship.
This improves the AI behavior by choosing the stances non-randomly:
* Breakthrough will be used if the base is expected to be capturable and
the coalition outnumbers the enemy by 20%.
* Elimination will be used if the coalition has at least as many units
as the enemy.
* Defensive will be used if the coalition has at least half as many
units as the enemy.
* Retreat will be used if the coalition is significantly outnumbers.
This also exposes the option to the player.
* Implements #1399
* Reverting accidental change in generate_landmap.py
* Changelog update
* Import beacon data for Marianas.

Aircraft that have no loadouts at all (such as the IL-78M) will have no
loadouts and thus no values in the dropdown menu. If the player toggles
the custom layout box we reset the flight's loadout to the selected
loadout, and with no loadouts in the combo box that is None, and
`Flight.loadout` isn't supposed to be optional.
Check for that case in the loadout selector and replace with an empty
loadout if that happens.

Updating the game destroys this window so we cannot continue with the
calls. It worked in my initial testing, so presumably it's partly
dependent on when the finalizers run.
Since the windows will be destroyed there's nothing for us to actually
update, so just remove that signal and the explicit close calls.

This doesn't currently interact very well with the auto purchase since
the procurer might by aircraft that don't have pilots available. That
should be fixed, but for the short term we should just default to not
enabling this new feature.
* Fixes#1310 by only refunding GUs if no faction CP has an attached factory. Previously it would refund all units at the CP, including aircraft.
Also changes the CP CAPTURE cheat to work at any CP regardless of adjacency to frontline or BLUEFOR/OPFOR state.
* Fixing typing issues, changint all Dict[] types to dict[]
* Updating changelog
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.
This also adds max group sizes for aircraft that need it but don't
according to DCS. Only the first tanker or AEW&C unit in a group can be
contacted by radio.
