Hotmod: 1968 v0.3

Some pretty significant changes and additions:

- Add paratrooper functionality in Conquest and MP/Skirmish; Soviet VDV and American 82nd Airborne now have a selection of air-droppable units, equipment and vehicles at their disposal. Currently Soviet paradrops utilize Mi-8 helicopter while Americans utilize Ch-47 Chinooks, until such time as I can implement An-12s and C-130s;
- Revamp functionality/implementation of helicopters; created a whole slew of new helicopter-deployed assets and new functions for US Air Cavalry and Soviet VDV;
- 2 types of helicopter transport:
- Sling-loaded helicopters have new "Release Sling Load" button in the Special Options menu; this will have them drop their slung load but then continue to be player-controllable;
- Helicopters with internal cargo must land, and have the "Unload Cargo" button that will pop out their carried equipment. Like sling-loaded helicopters, it remains player controllable afterwards;
- Transport helicopters that have dropped off their loads can then land and deploy any passengers as normal, as well as continue to operate as passenger-only transports;
- New "Return to Base" button added to have helicopters take off and fly home.
- Poland will get similar update in near future;

- Re-arranged and revamped Soviet and US tech trees, primarily to introduce new aerial assets as above;

Some of these new units haven't been added to Conquest trees, they will be soon, I'm just strapped for time and trying to rush a release.
