7228024ed5 Added a "twist" attribute for wings to allow for washout (or washin,
if desired) in the stall.  This allows for fairly docile stalls when
desired, as on trainers (you also need to limit the elevator lift).

fe4e83a10b Added a tunable "induced drag" number to aircraft. One of the things that
isn't well-constrained by the solution process is the drag-vs-aoa curve.
The default value that YASim picked was very steep, and resulted in most
of the jets flying their approaches *way* behind the power curve.  This
changes the default to be more forgiving, and adds an "idrag" tunable
to the configuration file for tweakers.

Also, change the default gear springiness to be less stiff.

764eb2a2e7 Automatically generate "contact" points for collision detection. Implemented
as extra (and invisible) gear objects.

5b84ae51a5 Initial revision of Andy Ross's YASim code. This is (Y)et (A)nother Flight
Dynamics (Sim)ulator.  Basically, this is a rough, first cut of a "different
take" on FDM design.  It's intended to be very simple to use,
producing reasonable results for aircraft of all sorts and sizes,
while maintaining simulation plausibility even in odd flight
conditions like spins and aerobatics.  It's at the point now where one
can actually fly the planes around.
