0cec9290db Add a configuration property to turn on/off the use of point sprites.
Generally you want point sprites for performance reasons when enhanced runway
lighting (and smooth points) are activated.  Most hardware doesn't
accelerate the rendering of standard smooth points, so without point sprites
you will kill your night time performance if you turn on enhanced runway
lighting.

Note that enhanced runway lighting "breaks" our clever scheme to make the
runway lighting brightness vary with the relative view angle.  This means
with enhanced lighting on, all lights are equally bright no matter what
direction you view them from.  So perpendicular runways are just as bright
as runways you are directly lined up with (when enhanced runway lighthing
is activated.)

You can revert to the original lighting scheme by turning off enhance runway
lights, turning off distance-attenuation, and turning off point-sprites in
the rendering options menu.

5831d99fc0 Always check for if glPointParameterIsSupported, even if we haven't asked
for point light distance attenuation, because we may want to toggle this
on via the rendering options gui.

503cc54a93 Rework the naModLock()/naModUnlock() semantics to be more
maintainable.  The rules are simple (extension functions are called
*with* the lock, which must be dropped before calling naCall(), which
grabs it) but the tracking of when the lock was held was getting a
little confused.  Keep a "nasal call depth" count in the subsystem to
figure out whether we are making a sub-call and thus hold the lock.

d68723f3da Time initialization fixes. 1) Offset types "system-offset", "gmt-offset",
and "latitude-offset" should not use a precalculated value of warp.
2) Since the values of cur_time and crrGMT are identical in the current
version of the SGTime class, the calculations of the "system", "gmt", and
"latitude" are re-evaluated and updated where necessary.

98c03f95e1 Vivian Meazza:
I attach 2 new files and a diff file for the associated changes to add a
“fluxgate compass” to the instrument inventory. Whist this outputs
essentially the same data as /orientation/heading-magnetic-deg, it has to
be powered, and can be made to fail. I also followed Roy’s suggestion to
generate the error properties for this instrument here rather than in
xmlauto.xml.

When this instrument is included in cvs, I intend to use it in the Hunter,
A4F Seahawk and KC135. After a bit more research, it might be appropriate
for the Spitfire and Hurricane as well. AJ would also like to use it for his
Lightning model.

bcd9b071c5 Create a "passive" mode for the autopilot. This is analogous to running the
autopilot with the servos off.  In otherwords, the computer goes through the
motions of computing the desired behavior (pitch or roll) but doesn't actually
drive the outputs.  This is potentially useful when implimenting a flight
director.

e7ed073c68 - Make two variable name modification to clarify units: altitude -> altitude_ft
and tgt_altitude -> tgt_altitude_ft.  Also fix a comment in AIBase.hxx
  indicating that the altitude is in meters, even though the usage throughout the
  code was most definitely feet.

- In AIMultiplayer.cxx, update the altitude_ft variable so that the altitude
  is reported correctly in the entity's property subtree.

- In AIMultiplayer.cxx, compute a velocity value in kts to fill in the speed
  entry in the entity's property subtree.  Note, this is not an earth centered
  reference speed, not an indicated speed and not a speed relative to the local
  airmass (that would be much harder to do.)

d702ed379d ok, so the old ~FGFontCache() was useless. But at least it didn't call
the buggy ~fnt(), causing an abort() ...   ;-)

(Only loaded texture fonts (*.txf) have a new'ed puFont. The built-in
pixmap fonts don't, and may, thus, not be deleted.)

94badeabcd Existing ground track estimation code depended on current_value - last_value
each frame.  However, often these values didn't change leading to bogus data
getting introduced into the computational pipeline.

This patch switches to a much more sane method for ground track computation.
