general idea: by using the plane class, we can set a elevation and then find a better one
* use elevation plane in situation
* adjusted depending classes such as hints, lists
* using setGroundElevationChecked so elevation can be gradually improved
* added new utility funtion is model list / aircraft list
* added setters/getters for CSimConnectObject
* added setters/getters for InterpolationStatus / PartsStatus
* added CSimConnectObjects (better encapsulation)
* support for loading from datastore
* improved timestamp handling
* new color and country classes
* new attributes
* updates for missing parts in CUser
* added snapshot class
* added snapshot in analyzer, signal for new snapshot
* made all provider signals available in CSimulator
* added finders in CSimulatedAircraftList
* moved COwnAircraftProviderDummy into own file
* signatures in contexts
* some specialized functions in aircraft list
* context menus in aircraft view
* default "blinking" implementation in driver common base class
* GUI component for aircraft parts
* remote aircraft selector component
* Adjusted GUI for internals component
* Enable / disable debug messages from GUI
* Allow to init engines directly
* Removed unused async sort in sequence
In same step fixed found issues in interpolator
* allow to set max rendered aircraft
(based on FSX testing)
* Only send changed situation to SIM
* Split sending of parts / situations
* Only send parts with a reduced frequency (means slower as positions)
* Mark geodetic height as null for default values (the value is usually unavailable)
* Fixed altitude to MSL for network data
* Trace which aircrafts support aircraft parts via network
* Renamed insert_fron push_front (as proposed by Roland)
Status quo / lessons learnt
* On slower PCs jitter is still noticed for interpolated aircraft.
* Running interpolation in an independent process (aka core, not in GUI) reduced load dependencies
=> it seems to make sense to run driver in own thread
* The onGround flag in parts seems clumsy as it required to retrieve parts for position updates
* In interpolation performance really matters
* using split by callsign everywhere
* helper function to insert_front
* revised linear interpolator
* renamed to remoteAircraft
* renamed to container() in providers (gettters are usually copies)
Issues why changes did so long:
* insert in list is not adding in front, but same as push_back (that was confusing)
* naming of values before/after in interpolator was ambigious
* QMap keeps values sorted by key, not arbitrarily
* consolidated ICoordinateGeodetic (e.g. fixed nested properties)
* shifted common functionality for objects/containers with callsign into interface
* shifted common functionality for objects/containers with geo position into interface
* shifted common functionality for objects/containers with timestamp into interface
* updated corresponding value objects / specialized lists
* adjusted all places where renamed functions are used
