Previously, the default distance for determining if a ship had finished a point in a model path was only 5. This worked fine for ships with low damp or no Newtonian physics. However, it did not work well with ships that use higher damps or Newtonian physics, becuase those ships contiunatlly overshoot that 5 meter distance and get stuck flying in a large circle trying to reach that point. This fix allows modders to set an AI flag to specify that the path distance check uses a larger value of 775 for points that are not the last point in the path. If desired I can add a game settings option that allows modders to set this value.
Removes the unused parameter from the routine. This has a small
ripple effect such that it results in an unused parameter in one
of the routines from which it is called.

The routine ai_turn_towards_vector() had an unused parameter (frametime)
and it has been removed.
Each of the instances where this routine is called have also been updated
to reflect the parameter removal. As this resulted in the routine
swarm_update_direction() suddenly having an unused parameter, that routine
and the places where it is called have also been updated (remove
unused parameter).

Removes the unused parameter from ai_big_maybe_enter_strafe_mode().
Each place where this routine is called has been corrected to reflect
the updated API.
The 'const' keyword has been applied to remaining parameters as
necessary.

Adds the 'const' keyword to the parameters in the routine
ai_big_strafe_maybe_attack_turret() as they are unchanged
by the routine.

The routine ai_big_strafe_maybe_retreat() is only used in the module in
which it is defined. Consequently it now sports the 'static' keyword, and
no longer uses the 'extern' keyword in its forward declaration (which has
been moved to be colocated with other forward declarations).
Secondly, since it was only using one of its two parameters, the unused
parameter has been removed.
Thirdly, since its only remaining parameter is not modified by the routine,
the 'const' keyword has been applied to it.

The routine ai_big_ship() is empty, and appears to have been since it
was initially added many years ago. Removing it helps eliminate some
unused code.
Signed-off-by: Peter Mitsis <[email protected]>
The routine ai_big_maybe_fire_weapons() is only used in the file in
which it is defined and is thus a good candidate for being declared
'static'.
Furthermore, as it was only using two of the five parameters, the
three unused parameters have been removed and all instances where the
routine is called have been updated.

This introduces a new mechanism for handling bit flags. Instead of using an int (or two, or three) to write bits into, this uses the std::bitset in a wrapper class that accepts an enum class as input. This means that certain classes of errors we've had a few of in the engine, where a coder used the wrong set of flags or checked them against the wrong variable (SF_STEALTH vs SIF_STEALTH, for example) can now be detected at a compiler level rather than not at all.
Coverity defects 1320483, 1320484, 1320485, and 1320486 noted that several values were being set and then immediately overwritten before they could do anything. These appear to be related to behavior that Volition disabled before release that would allow the AI to slow down while attacking capital ships. It seemed a shame to waste this code, so I've added a flag to enable the behavior.
