Enemy Helicopters Beta Update

Unfortunately this update doesn't add the enemy helicopters that I was hoping to get in before the weekend ːsteamsadː I've just been too busy with my day job to be able to spend the required time to get them working.
However, I did find I have a few hours spare today so thought I would add one of the most requested features....
1. Added a Simple Target Selection (STS) system so that you can cycle through detected targets using "Next Target" & "Previous Target" buttons.
These are bindable in the Control System menu or, for joypad users, they are integrated into the MFD SOI system as "Modifier 1" + "Dpad Left" or "Dpad Right" on either the Threat Display or Targeting Pod Displays.
The system sorts targets based on range and it also works in tandem with the Threat Displays range and target priority settings.
The targeting cone is displayed on your Threat Display and is roughly +/- 35 degrees from your aircrafts heading.
Only targets that are visible on the Threat Display can be targeted via the STS. It will not lock on to targets that have not been spotted so you will still need to do a bit of work to find hidden targets (or fly the AH-64D and turn the just Radar on!!)
2. Vectorised the Threat Display's range rings, radar sweep arm and STS cone.
