time' code paths. The problem may lead to skipped fdm updates at very high
frame rates. The most visible effect of that was that the aircraft
slips backwards wrt the forward moving carrier.
Remove unused stuff.

queries. This also fixes some issues with the carrier and the croaser
altitude values that is used when no hit is found.
Include some ifdefed out debugging code, that might be interresting.
Modified Files:
groundcache.hxx groundcache.cxx
Make leaner interfaces to the groundcache.
Remove legacy interfaces.
Update users of them.
Add new query routines for 'nearest point' and 'body with given id'.

Background are problems modeling the rotax 912 engine. The idle speed
of the real engine is about half of the speed I could achieve with the
default minimum manifold pressure. While on ground I can switch off
the engine by pulling the throttle. The audible difference between the
different minimum idle speed (real vs. simulated) is extreme. With the
patch I get quite realistic sound. For the rotax engine I use
min-throttle="0.05" which is half of the former default value.
This gets rid of a lot of messy code. Although the performance is about
the same as the old code, there is the possibility of a big performance
boost if/when the polytope intersector is taught about KD trees.
* experimental clean-up / reduction on two of the FG headers:
(I'm going to await feedback on the developers list before doing more of
these, to avoiding going over files multiple times, but in principle it
seems pretty straightforward.)
* final fixes for SG_USING_STD removal
- this exposed a bizarre issue on Mac where dragging in <AGL/agl.h> in
extensions.hxx was pulling in all of Carbon to the global namespace
- very scary. As a result, I now need to explicitly include CoreFoundation
in fg_init.cxx.
- change SG_USING_STD(x) to using std::x
