    reads and functions as "next".  "previous" reads and functions as "previous" if
    not armed, "disarm" if armed.
  - time margin of AAT optimisation is configurable under "Default task turnpoints" page, expert mode
    as "Optimisation Margin" option.

  on change, to prevent calculations slowing down the refresh.

Changes from 5.1.5 beta 4:
- Infoboxes (AA Time, Task Time To Go, Next Time To Go,
             Task Arrival Time, AA Delta Time)
  now use consistent color format:
     black/white: AAT est > min time
     blue: AAT est turning now > min time
     red: AAT est < min time
- Task editor/overview page shows file name of task in caption, and shows '*'
   if task is edited and not saved.
- Bug fixes to tasman instruments vario
- Text entry dialog uses larger font
- Flight logger can use short file name, if "Logger short file" is true.
- Flight logger gets ID from 3-letter logger ID
  in System config, if not set this defaults to 'AAA'.

  target task is displayed in thick green dashed

  all time spent in circling mode.

- Calculate AAT time to go if turning now while in sector, then
   going to remaining targets after this.
- AA dT infobox goes blue if task time > AAT time + 5 minutes when in sector
   and pilot turns now.
  Therefore, particularly in last AAT sector, when AA dT is blue,
  it is reasonably safe to turn now, even if the target is deeper in the
  sector.  (only if color infoboxes are on)
- Set waypoint bearing and best cruise track to first leg bearing
  when in start sector, so blue arrow points to first target, and
  so does screen orientation.

Changes from 5.1.4:
- Target dialog steps in 2% and 2 degrees instead of 5.

  towards task line from previous target through aircraft when advancing
