Not all of these nations actually field this radar (according to
Wikipedia), but at least it's a real EWR, and it's the only blue one
we've got.

We want to clean up eventually, but allowing it to exist in both develop
and the release branch makes cherry picks easier.

Prevents players from accidentally deleting flights they're currently
viewing, which would cause an error.

These get broken whenever someone uses the GitHub file upload editor,
since that doesn't understand .gitattributes.

I had asked Khopa for permission to edit two of his campaigns to fix
some issues. Only the YAMLs have been edited, .miz files did not need
changes. I have tested both YAMLs to make sure campaigns will generate.
Also tested generating turn 1 .miz and ran it in DCS.
Golan Heights:
1. Removed the 2 problematic squadrons from Marj Ruhayyil that were
causing aircraft losses due to larger aircraft sizes not fitting at that
airfield (which is intended for helicopters).
2. Implemented squadron limits.
Caen to Evreux:
1. Re-arranged squadrons for better force distribution and revised
primary and secondary mission types for better default play experience.
2. Implemented squadron limits.

BAI loadout updated to use the new radar guided hellfires. Aux tanks
removed in favour of extra cannon ammo.

A formatting fix for scenic route 2 that was preventing new campaign start. Fixing at Fuzzle's request as he doesn't have the time for it right now.

This is optional because I really don't know if I trust it. I don't see
much wrong with it (aside from the warning about not using it with auto-
resolve, because it won't restore lost aircraft), but it's really not
something I'd built for since it's not going to be possible as the RTS
features grow.

(cherry picked from commit 4b4c45e90f8e130db4c0b00599ee3419f02fad31)
Support for DCS 2.8.5.40170, including laser hellfire, pylon 5 for the
apache, and a more tolerant livery scanner (not all liveries will be
discovered, but Liberation at least won't crash).
Fixes https://github.com/dcs-liberation/dcs_liberation/issues/2880.
The previous method of using a uniform scalar of the MSL wind speed for
higher altitudes didn't offer enough control. In particular, the shape
needs to be quite different to skew low, mid, high.
This patch reworks that system so the parameters of each distribution
are configured per-altitude level. To keep some continuity between
altitudes (on a windy day, all levels should have higher wind speeds on
average), the wind speed of the lower altitude will be added to the
scale value of the higher altitude.
Since it wasn't practical to approximate the previous behavior with the
new system, this also handles the tuning of each. The low altitude
speeds remain mostly unchanged (typically around 5 knots expect for
thunderstorms), but the average speeds for other altitudes went up to
more closely match the previous intent but without the massive
overshoot. At 2000m wind speeds are typically in the 20-25 knot range
now, and 8000m 30-50 knots.
https://www.quora.com/What-is-the-average-wind-speed-at-different-altitudes
has some of the source data, and Quora is the most authoritative source
there is. It claims that cruise altitude winds can get "as high as 150
knots", but doesn't claim anything about the average. I had a
surprisingly difficult time finding good data for cruise altitude air
speeds for non-jet stream paths (though many of our maps are in jet
streams), so I just eyeballed it from
https://turbli.com/wind-during-flights/.

Fixes https://github.com/dcs-liberation/dcs_liberation/issues/2863.
Wind speeds should not be uniformly distributed. This switches to a
Weibull distribution which allegedly (see the bug) is good enough.
Experimentally that seems true as well, though I know nothing about how
wind works irl. This at least looks like it'll generate reasonable
variation in missions while keeping the 1st through 3rd quartile
behaviors from getting out of hand.
I'm very uncertain about the scaling factor aspect of this. Naively the
wind speeds at different altitudes ought to be somewhat correlated, but
I'm not sure how much, and whether this kind of scaling is at all the
right way to do it. As before, meh, close enough?
