mfranz 1a6a1a6436 first stab at generic dynamic view handling; can be turned on/off via menu
entry "View->Toggle Dynamic Cockpit View" entry; state saved to autosave.xml;
there are no configuration parameters yet, but the default values work for
most aircraft; exceptions: ground steering effect of jsbsim aircraft is
jittery; yawing effect on big aircraft is too abrupt. This needs to be
configurable.
Suggestions for improvements are welcome if they are bundled with a
working diff that actually proves the claimed advantages.   :-)
