Bugfix: When a squad had the scouting trait, CAN_DETECT_ENEMY_PRESENSE_IN_SECTORS_AROUND = TRUE and CAN_DETERMINE_ENEMY_NUMBERS_IN_SECTORS_AROUND = FALSE the map always showed enemy teams next to the player squad because of the false positives feature. I disabled this feature completely until a believable mechanism is implemented for a chance based false positive reporting.

- Added first page and last page buttons to history log
- Fixed pick up backpack on the same grid to cost the same as manually picking it up instead of no cost
- Display message when dropping and picking backpacks for all mercs in sector

Fix: tank cannon and other internal items of IC_GUN class with unspecified gun type (NOT_GUN)
- It would by default use 0.0 for damage/range/handling/etc. modifiers, essentially making them useless (and leading to tanks never using their cannons). Now all modifiers for NOT_GUN are 1.0 by default and can be specified in Item_Settings.ini like any other type. (by anv & Buggler)

Fixes (anv & Buggler)
- fix: backpacks stacked in the same sector inventory slot would share ownership, causing soldier to pick-up both of them, now when stacking ownership is automatically disabled,
- fix: when manually reorganizing backpacks in inventory slots, ownerships are properly swapped too,
- fix: when using auto pick-up backpack feature function was looping through non-existing items in sector inventory, possibly creating duplicates,
- fix: "drop all backpacks" feature was limited to 18 mercs, now it works for all player-controlled characters.

- seats can be changed or swapped while inside vehicle,
- remade JSD files for cars,
- vehicles aren't transparent anymore,
- vehicles are louder than people, depending how fast they move.

- Streamlined vehicle controls - no more selecting driver and vehicle separately, switching displayed APs and other esoteric activities. To move vehicle just select its driver and you're good to go. If you click on vehicle in tactical, also its driver will be selected automatically. Besides driving car, driver can perform other actions normally.
- Vehicle's APs, health and fuel are displayed on the steering wheel - thanks to Buggler for idea. Vehicle APs are treated as a resource (so if car changes driver mid-turn, it won't go any further than it would).
- Added option Tactical Interface Settings > ADD_PASSENGER_TO_ANY_SQUAD. If you order passenger to exit vehicle by clicking on the seat belt, he'll be added to new squad, so if you ordered six passengers to exit one by one, you'd end up with six new squads. With ADD_PASSENGER_TO_ANY_SQUAD = TRUE, passenger will be added to any existing squad with empty slot if possible.
- Added option Tactical Interface Settings > PASSENGER_LEAVING_SWITCH_TO_NEW_SQUAD. If you order passenger to exit vehicle by clicking on the seat belt, by default you get switched to his new squad. With PASSENGER_LEAVING_SWITCH_TO_NEW_SQUAD = FALSE you'll switch only if exiting passenger is the selected one.
- Cosmetic fix: changed display above vehicle from "*Merc's name* (VEHICLE)" to "*Merc's name* (*Vehicle's name*)" and colour from yellow to white (since mercs in vehicle are controllable and yellow is reserved for mercs on assignments).
- Fixed passengers rotation. Again.
- Fixed vehicles getting "tired" - lowered APs due to fuel below max. They can move the same as long as they have any fuel.
- Fixed unrelated bug: clicking on any empty slot in team panel would select merc with id 0.
- Fixed unrelated bug: switching to squad with less mercs would cause team panel to still show skill tooltips for mercs from previous squad on empty slots.

- To control vehicle, click on it or on the steering wheel in team panel under driver's portrait.
- Vehicles have two gears - slow drive and fast drive, switchable just like walking and running ('S', 'R', double-click).
- Vehicles working: Ice Cream Van, Hummer, Jeep, El Dorado and, potentially, tanks.
- Passengers can be selected and ordered to open fire from the inside
- You can also open inventory screen for passengers, pass or throw items, etc.
Normally vehicle is treated as any other merc and has its own APs. It has obvious disadvantages - it's possible to drive in the middle of the enemy group using vehicle's 100AP,
and then use all your mercs inside vehicle with their still full APs to kill everything that moves at point blank range - with even the driver participating!
- To prevent that you can set Tactical Gameplay Settings > AP_SHARED_AMONG_PASSENGERS_AND_VEHICLE_MODE with following calculation methods
