Bug fixes:
1) Giving a ship an aft Thargoid laser and a forward Thargoid laser
now has a different effect to giving it just a forward Thargoid
laser. (It gives it double attack power with its laser; use sparingly!)
2) Thargoid laser rate of fire no longer depends on the frame rate.
AI upgrades:
1) Pilots with fear will attempt to flee from Q-Mines at top speed
2) Pilots without fear will attempt to blow up Q-Mines, then avoid the
cloud if unsuccessful.
3) Ships with a Thargoid laser fitted will use the fact that they have
an omnidirectional laser to their advantage in combat.
4) Ships with multidirectional weapons (thargoid lasers, plasma
turrets) can now track multiple targets with those weapons, which
need not be the primary target, and use these weapons as point
defense. New AI commands have been added for optimal use of point
defense, but even old AIs will do reasonably well.
New AI commands:
1) "addPrimaryAggressorAsDefenseTarget"
2) "addFoundTargetAsDefenseTarget"
3) "findNewDefenseTarget"
4) "clearDefenseTargets"
New AI alerts:
1) DEFENSE_TARGET_LOST
2) DEFENSE_TARGET_DESTROYED
3) CASCADE_WEAPON_DETECTED

- system.info.sun_gone_nova will take effect immediately, making the sun go nova, and killing the whole population instantly. No save or load possible inside a nova system!
- minor code tidying up!
