MiG-15 3.0.8: new FDM by Andreas Zenner

All changes below are by Andreas Zenner but I moved his comments
from a separate text file into the FDM file.

* MiG-15bis.xml: make the FDM more realistic.
* MiG-15bis-set.xml:
- tweak the view configuration
- add tweak factors and initialization for the new FDM.
* Models/Liveries/CSSR_aerobatic.xml: add documentation.

DHC6: Small update on the fuel truck
Added the option to stop the refuelling/draining process

MiG-15 3.0.7: add documentation and a frequency scale mark on the radio

More improvements from Andreas Zenner, documentation tweaked by myself.

MiG-15 3.0.6: correct the liveries.
Still to be fixed: the bottom of the fuselage where the guns are located
should re-use HullForeDown.png as texture (regression introduced in 3.0.5).

Citation II:

* fixed flight-recorder
* added pilot and copilot model (not yet perfect - WIP)

MiG-15 3.0.5: livery support, external model improvements and other fixes

More merges from Andreas Zenner:

External 3D model improvements:

* Models/Instruments/Canopy/MiG-15bis-Canopy.ac: rewrite.
* Models/Instruments/Canopy/MiG-15bis-Canopy.xml: simplify animations.
* Models/Instruments/Canopy/uv_canopy_[01].png: new.
* Models/MiG-15bis.ac: rewrite to remove seams and allow different
textures on either side of ailerons, trimmer, etc.

Livery support:
* Models/Liveries/CSSR_aerobatic/*: new livery from Andreas Zenner.
* Models/Liveries/USSR_211/*: move the old (default) livery here;
update textures to match the new seamless model.
* MiG-15bis-set.xml: add menu item to change liveries.
* Models/MiG-15bis.xml: load livery support when a remote or AI player
appears and flies a MiG-15.
* Nasal/MiG-15bis.nas: initialize livery support on startup.

Additional bug fixes:
* Models/Instruments/Turnometer/MiG-15bis-Turnometer.xml: indicate
rate of turn (yaw), not rate of roll.
* Nasal/bombable.nas: fix a typo.

MiG-15 3.0.4: keyboard shortcuts, airspeed indicator and FDM fixes

Start merging Andreas' changes:

* MiG-15bis-set.xml: toggle engine emergency brake with Ctrl+K
instead of Ctrl+R, in order not to interfere with instant replay.
* MiG-15bis.xml (FDM):
- tweak_for_idle_thrust: new, hack to counter the excessive idle
thrust of the engine.
- gear static and rolling friction: adjust.
- Delta_Lift_due_to_alpha_and_mach: correct the table.
- Delta_Lift_due_to_speedbrake: remove.
- Drag_due_to_gear: add drag due to flaps.
- Side_force_due_to_beta,
Pitch_moment_due_to_alpha_and_elevator: adjust.
* Models/Instruments/Airspeedometer/MiG-15bis-Airspeedometer.ac:
rewrite; replace the small and large needles with IAS_Needle (thick)
and TAS_Needle (thin).
* Models/Instruments/Airspeedometer/MiG-15bis-Airspeedometer.xml:
indicate IAS and TAS with the IAS_Needle and TAS_Needle respectively.
