B-25: rotate the dorsal turret when inside it; add guns.

This is a major contribution by Alexandre Brenta.

* Models/b25.ac (Dorsal_Turret): new object created from parts of vitreJ.
* Models/Interior/Guns/SideGuns.ac: delete the half guns of the dorsal turret.
* Models/Interior/interior.ac (IntSideGunsBase): rename to Dorsal_Turret_Interior;
move parts of intvitreJ and others into this object.
* Models/Interior/interior.xml: rotate Dorsal_Turret_Interior.
* Models/b25.xml: rotate Dorsal_Turret. Add two M2 Browning maching guns. Rotate
them too, horizontally and vertically.
* Nasal/turrets.nas: new, copy and modify from the B-17. Simplify. Bug fix: use
the view name instead of a nondeterministic view number.
* b25j-set.xml: load it. Add a dorsal turret view.

Saab 37: Version 4.312
Arms: Fixed regression that jettisoning all stores gives collision with the RB-99.
TI: Heading bug no longer shows if only doing radio navigation, use artificial horizon lines.
HUD: Heading bug no longer shows if only doing radio navigation, use artificial horizon lines.
TI: Fixed passive radar would see aircraft even if they had transponder and radar off.
TI: Replaced some getprops.
Radar: No longer supply selection to arms if radar is silent.
Arms: RB75 and RB05 now need less speed to steer.

HUD: Fixed blinking selected when outside HUD view no longer work in tactical mode.
TI: Fixed bulls-eye infobox missing the degree symbol when showing direction to radar selection.

Control: {Colin Geniet} Binds cursor control handle rotation to the correct properties.
Control: {Colin Geniet} Readds cursor control via flight controls.
Control: {Colin Geniet} Separates input and actual properties for cursor controls.
Control: {Colin Geniet} If cursor control via flight controls is enable, input properties are combined with flight controls input to calculate actual controls.
Radar: Added f16 to RCS and made it more error resistant.
Stores: Updated damage from bombs.
Arms: Updated to latest ordnance code.
Sim: Made state system compatible with auto state in Fg 2018.2
Docs: Updated authors and changelog.
Sim: Key F6 now ejects the pilot.

Key 'F6' now ejects the pilot.

Citation 4.1.15: relocate the Hobbs timer to where it is visible.

(it became invisible, presumably because the model in the c172p changed)

an24: animate the front gear doors properly, using standard properties.

The standard properties are not only transmitted over multiplayer but also recorder for replays.
This change therefore restores compatibility of the front gear with replays. Also saves 18 bytes
per mp packet by avoiding 3 unnecessary float properties.

* an24b-set.xml (sim/multiplay/generic/float[1..3],
an2/animations/gear, an2/animations/gear-smalldoors, an2/animations/gear-bigdoors): delete.
* Models/An-24B.xml (nasal/load): delete the aliasing of the deleted properties.
Animate the front gear and its doors using only gear/gear[0]/position-norm.
* Models/Interior/Instruments/Control_Units/Gear/sw_gear-lever.xml: ditto.
* Models/Interior/Instruments/Control_Units/Gear/gear-lever-lock.xml: ditto.
* Tutorials/Engineer-Preflight.xml: ditto.

an24b: do not pollute the property trees of remote aircraft over multiplayer.

(Redo r3560 that was partly overwritten and undone by r3561)

find Models -name '*.xml' -exec sed -r -i 's,prop(erty)?>/,prop\1>,g' {} \;

an24b: animate nose, nose gear, ailerons and rudder over multiplayer.

Starting with r3558, the nose and nose gear would no longer be visible
over multiplayer because they use nonstandard properties. As a
interim solution, I am now aliasing these to generic properties and
transmitting them over multiplayer. A better long-term solution for
the nose gear would be only to use the standard property
gear/gear[0]/position-norm but make the animation more complex (i.e.
in animate doors between 0 and 0.2, animate the gear between 0.2 and
0.8 and animate the small doors again between 0.8 and 1.0, or
something like that). This would save 3 floats in each MP packet,
i.e. 18 bytes.

For the ailerons and rudder, use standard properties directly.

an24b: First tutorial and minor changes in crewsection.ac and fire extinguishing system

an24b: do not pollute the property trees of remote aircraft over multiplayer.

find Models -name '*.xml' -exec sed -r -i 's,prop(erty)?>/,prop\1>,g' {} \;

an24b: redo r3557 with prior approval from maerchenprinz.
