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.

The simulated aircraft object has been set only once for each X-Plane aircraft as soon as adding to the simulator succeeded. Any updates to transponder codes, modes etc. were missed and never updated.
To make sure we always have the latest information available, we update all known X-Plane aircraft every second in the slow timer tasks.
Manifest Tasks: T502
Summary:
The formular to calculate the dew point is not defined for relative
humidity of 0.0 %. It is every unlikely to ever happen in real world
weather, but is handled just in case by using the smallest possible
numerical double value.

Test Plan:
- Check that the new shared libraries are packaged in all platform installers.
- check that plugins are loaded properly on all platforms.

The config is loaded from json files by qmake, and we define the qmake
function `swiftConfig` for checking whether a feature is enabled.
This function can be directly used in `buildconfig_gen.cpp.in`,
so the trick with C++ comment tokens in variables is not needed.
Although the reverse lookup of a model is correct, it's aircraft ICAO code is wrong
Issues found
* in the driver the ICAO code is permanently overridden -> commented out
* there are two contexts, own aircraft and simulator, but only one uses reverse lookup -> now both
* using Qt::QueuedConnection for context -> GUI
- Use common function for Session and P2P connections
- Don't use the DBus service watcher as it did not allow to test in regular intervals
- Add a XSwiftBus version check to X-Plane listener
- Try to initialize and acquire multiplayer planes in checkConnection() already and warn the user if any of those failed. The plugin will be loaded only if everything succeeded.
This allows to get the version number of XSwiftBus itself. It maintains the same version as swift (e.g. 0.8.7 without the time stamp) and can be used to compare it for compatibility reasons.
