Rework the LOD ranges.
1. The scenery ranges are now deltas (avoids overlapping values)
2. The AI/MP pixel mode now has a default radius that is 20 for Aircraft, 200 for ships, 350 for carriers. This is a simple constant in a virtual function.
3. Added the ability to set the AI/MP ranges equal which means use the low detail model.
4. Changed high detail only to be indicated by a -ve number in maxRangeDetail
5. Re-ordered the range list to go from lowest detail at [0] to highest detail at the end. This is because OSG always loads the models starting from zero on the assumption that the detail increases with the index.
This fixes the pixel mode, which previously would use the radius of the parent which would be confusingly large, and unrelated to the actual size of the model. With the simple defaults that we have the pixel values set in the ranges won't exactly match the rendered size of the model on screen, but it will be a lot closer and more importantly meaningful.
The following new features have been added to JSBSim:
* Added the ability to set up the starter and acceleration times of a turbine (parameters <n1spinup>, <n2spinup>, <n1startrate>, <n2startrate>).
* The <integrator> filter can now be reset to 0.0 by setting its <trigger> property to a negative value.
* The integration scheme of the <integrator> filter can now be chosen among "rect" (Euler), "trap" (Trapezoidal), "ab2" 2nd order Adams-BashForth and "ab3" 3rd order Adams-Bashforth
* The following functions can now be used in <function>: floor, ceil and fmod. Their functionalities are the same than the corresponding C/C++ functions.
The following bugs are fixed by this commit:
* PID integration with the 3rd order Adams-Bashforth was inccorect.
* The fail_stuck property of sensors (accelerometers, magnetometers, gyro, etc.) without a <lag> element was setting the output to zero instead of sticking to the last output value. Thanks to Jonathan Redpath (aka legoboyvdlp) for the bug report.
* When a sensor was stuck, the drift, gain, bias and quantization of the last output before being stuck were ignored. Thanks to Dennis J. Linse for the bug report.
Due to how the popup menu was refresh, using MP servers at index 0 or 1
didn’t work correctly. Change some logic and add a helper to make this
work reliably, without a second Repeater and dummy properties.
Expand the range of filtering options on axis values to include the
optional use of an interpolation table, which gives many more options
when dealing with some devices.
When the lat-lon of a waypoint disagrees with the discovered ident by
more than a threshold, assume we have a DB mismatch, and just revert
to a basic wpt specified by lat-lon. This avoids inserting huge
legs by selecting a very distant navaid with matching ident

* Disables dew point transmission as the humidity model is not handling the case where the vapor saturation pressure gets higher than the ambient pressure.
* Removed computations for temperatures at very high altitudes as they don't match with the rest of JSBSim atmosphere model.
Use an internal window (instead of a real OS window) for popup choices,
and cap the maximum size. Use a scrollbar when the number of items is
too large, and adjust the position to fit in the window.
