Seems the hack was necessary for the pre-OSG display only. Or the feature
is broken since OSG port altogether. But it caused issues for 3D and 2D
cockpits when /sim/virtual-cockpit wasn't enabled. => Removing for now.
Fixes an ugly issue with OSG overwriting memory/stack. wxradar triggered
the issue in display mode "ARC" - since it configured a display mask (12
vertices) but all vertices were immediately removed again ("_vertices->clear()").
Issue is fixed, mask now working - however the mask wasn't even properly
aligned for the display (probably never worked since OSG port). The display
mask is only really required for weather display - so disabling for now.
Original property-rules in keyboard.xml toggled master and clock freeze
independently - which caused issues when only one property was true. New
command toggles both properties consistently.
This reverts commit b36b33f716.
See #316: Caused issues with sky becoming black in dense fog.
Also: when the fog issue is solved, we could configure the constant
(black) clear color once only (during init), no need to do it in every
loop. Also, entire "if (skyblend) { ... } else {..}" was redundant,
since "if" and "else" clauses were all identical - and the "clearColor"
variables were unused. => Once the fog issue is solved, we can easily
improve the clearColor configuration here.
Panning feature looked broken to some users since auto-center is enabled
by default which blocks panning. center-on-aircraft is now disabled
automatically when view is panned.
This class and their source files visual_enviro.[h|c]xx were
unused since OSG transition. It's only functionality was to
keep a variable for the enable-state of rendering of precipitation.
This has now been moved to SGPrecipitation.
This patch also removes all references to this class and
visual_enviro.hxx. Wxradar needs a new implementation for cloud
echoes which probably should be part of fgclouds.

New module contributed: AV400WSim.
Supports communication with external (aka real) Garmin 400/500 WAAS flight
sim units. Includes changes to options.cxx and fg_io.cxx to support
invoking and configuring the new module.
New "auto-position" switch to always use closest tower for tower-view.
Exposes new "/sim/airport/closest-airport-id" property.
Display closest airport on groundradar by default.
