Issue a warning when finding duplicate tail numbers. Note that this is far from a fatal error, but does interfere with the startup heuristics data collection mechanism.
* A few new features to allow database management and traffic pattern developement:
--prop:/sim/traffic-manager/dumpdata=true: dumps the currently loaded datafile to the console for inspection.
--prop:/sim/traffic-manager/datafile=/path/to/somefile.xml: Skips autoscanning and reads traffic only from the specified xml file.
--prop:/sim/traffic-manager/datafile=/path/to/somefile.conf: Slips autoscanning and reads traffic from a plain text file, as described on the forum/wiki
* Removed the use of pointers for heuristics calculations, as urged by Frederic Bouvier
* Fixed domain error in proportion calculation during loading, resulting in random skipping of aircraft, as reported by Jorg van der Venne.

Enable the collection of AI aircraft position statistics. This will allow for a dramatic speedup of the establishment of AI traffic after program initialization.

Major update to the AI code:
* New features
- More realistic descent paths
- Separation during descent and approach
- ATC approach controller (still silent)
- inbound traffic flow will start immediately
* Bug fixes
- Properly handle vertical speed when on ground
- Departing aircraft now wait for taxiclerance before moving
- Traffic manager waits for proper weather initialization
- Fixed instabilities in the preferential runway usage code
- Fine tuning of waypoint following code.

Major update of Ballistic objects and submodels. Introduce submodels slaved to AI Objects. Remove deprecated code. Try to increase framerate. Use quaternion calculations for Initial Conditions.

Some terrainsampler improvements
- use max. computation time instead of max computations per frame
- restart computation of an area only after significant movememt
- let the area move with a heading and a speed

Autopilot is more than just an autopilot: Introducing: "property rule"
The autopilot has grown beyond being just an autopilot. It's
components, filters and controllers could be used to set property
values based on complex rules and driven from other property values.
That's why I chose to give it the name "property-rule".
This patch allows to define an arbitrary number of property rules under
a/sim/property-rule[n]/path
using the same syntax as autopilot configurations.

First step into implementing the local-weather system
This is the first part of the local-weather implementation
of Thorsten Renk, currently written entirly in Nasal. Here
comes the terrain-sampling subsystem as a first step. It is
not (yet) included in the build process which will be
performed when the system has a little matured.

Overhaul and simplify the GPS search logic based

search-by-name, which was broken.

Thorsten Brehm: GPWS: Fixed permanent blocking of lower prio warnings
Only block callouts which were actually issued to the pilot. When
multiple callouts trigger at the same time, allow lower prio warnings
to be issued once the higher prio ones are resolved.
=> Gear/flap warnings are now working reliably (no longer blocked
permanently when altitude callouts are enabled).

Add --fg-aircraft option, and aircraft dir path list. Partial support in places that load files, for respecting the setting.
Add helper to look for an aircraft branch path in multiple candidate locations.
Update the main subsystems to use the helper, and hence load from any aircraft dir.
