Add good-primary-time SEXP
This allows FREDers to have more control over which primary weapon the AI uses. The arguments to the SEXP are the object mounting the weapon, the weapon name, the target object and a number used as a boolean which turns the overriding on or off. The object arguments can be any combination of ship, wing or team. I implemented this by mapping the object signatures for all possible pairs of subject (the ship mounting the weapon) and target ships that were specified in the SEXP to the weapon. When selecting a primary, the AI checks if it and its target are one of these pairs, and if so selects the bank with the weapon if available. When active, the AI also can't link primaries, since this might go against what the FREDer wants. I implemented this with a new ship flag.
Will take another look later. I am a little bit skeptical about the implementation, so I'll have to think about that, but I really like the concept. If this works well, I recommend extending it to secondaries as well, because the current good-secondary-time is very minimalist.
