The prototype of update_metar_properties does not match overridden func.

replaced with efficient listener callbacks. One use is the new FPS display.
This is reviewed and OK'ed by Andy, relatively trivial and separated from
the rest of Nasal, so problems are quite unlikely and confined to users of
this function.
The callback is executed whenever the property is written to -- even if
the value didn't change. The triggering Node is available via cmdarg().
Examples: _setlistener("/sim/crashed", func {print("haha!")});
_setlistener("/foo/bar", func { print(cmdarg().getPath() ~ " changed")})
it's also possible to enable/disable menu/item entries with higher numbers.
This can be useful for adding entries from other config files (aircraft
specific or local). I'd say aircraft files can use indices starting with
[100] and local files starting with [1000]. Such high number will never
collide with an entry in menubar.xml, even if entries are added/removed
there.
Display the ground intersection point on mouse click (if click not consumed
by the gui or the panel.) This should eventually get stuffed into the
property tree.
Computes the pick direction and starting point. This is code that translates
a screen coordinate into a vector in the FlightGear world (between the eye and
the on-screen coordinate.) Armed with this vector in FG world coordinates,
you could call a scenery intersection routine and lookup the lon/lat/elev of
the point in the world that was clicked on.
* in some cases more specific sg exception types were used in place
of the more generic one, e.g., sg_io_exception instead of sg_exception
when the context of the error was an IO error
* in some cases, the error message was made more specific
* minor style fix for exception rethrowing --- using throw; whenever
a re-throw is made; sometimes optimizing away the exception symbol name
in the catch handler at all
* more specific catch handlers added in some places -- e.g.,
an sg_io_exception caught ahead of sg_exception
- fix indentation (there were 2, 3, 4, 7(!) space indents as well as tab
indents, all mixed together)
- no code changes, except one "if (foo) {}" changed to "if (!foo) return; ..."
Unfortunately, we don't have an easy way to access the puObjects
only by knowing the respective XML property node, because the
menu structure was built by plib from string lists. That's why
we walk the puMenuBar tree and store {property node}->{puObject*}
pairs in a map. With this infrastructure in place we can now
easily enable/disable entries, but we can also make other changes
to menu buttons as we see need. The structure of puMenuBar is
described in the pui documentation, so it's less of a hack than
it looks. :-)
remove a hack and do it properly: if the requested elevation is for some
reason below the surface and the intersection test fails (as it appears
to be the case in EGLL), try again from 10000m ASL

Insert empty string as marker between FG_SCENERY path elements.
FG_SCENERY=A:B expands to [A/Terrain, A/Objects, "", B/Terrain, B/Objects, ""]
(assuming that both A/ and B/ have Terrain/ and Objects/ subdirs).
tileentry.cxx -- FGTileEntry::load():
Check all tile dirs in FG_SCENERY from left to right: add all objects
to the scenery until a terrain tile was found: In this case read the
rest of that group (i.e. the Objects/ twin dir) and then stop scanning.

sea tile, and finally process the objects. This guarantees that all objects
are placed relative to a valid tile center, rather than to the origin (0/0/0).
This is important for objects in sea tiles, and allows to display objects
of *.stg files that came sooner in FG_SCENERY.
This was the reason why some people (especially SuSE10.0/gcc 4.0.2
users) couldn't see others in MP. I don't even know why I'm committing
that. It's less important than taxi lights ...
