Pressure at surface level was the wrong value. All barometers and
altimeters use pressure reduced to mean sea level. Reading that value
from GFS instead returns much more reasonable values.

* Before this commit, only the true altitude was known for an aircraft situation. The pressure altitude was not available anywhere yet.
* This caused a wrong altitude in radar clients.
* We fix this reading the pressure altitude from the simulators and set it in the own aircraft situation.
* MS Flight Simulators have the pressure altitude in the APIs available.
* For X-Plane and emulated simulator, we need to calculate it from the pressure at sea level.
* Finally, we use the new available pressure altitude to send it to the FSD server.

Summary: This struct variable is not used yet, but initializing it fixes a warning in cppcheck.

Summary:
So far we were linking against the prebuilt FSUIPC user library,
compiled with VS2010 many years ago. The source of this user library is
part of the FSUIPC SDK, so we can benefit from modern compilers and
include it into our source tree.
This version contains some very small wide char fixes compared to the
official FSUIPC SDK source.
It also includes the new 64 bit version.

Summary:
If FSUIPC is configured, its support will be enabled in swift
and disabled otherwise.
