5 - multi-segment wavesurfing

Extended changes for guessfactor gun to wavesurfing. It was surprisingly straightforward and has helped performance significantly.

Planned for near future: automatic re-segmentation with a large number of factors.[1]

4 - multi-segment guess factors

Modified guess factors to include acceleration. This has been changed in such a way that adding additional factors later should be straightforward.

3a - fixed display of guessfactor waves

Now shows the wave for the correct segment - sometimes the gun is cool enough to fire but needs to wait another tick for the barrel to swing into position.

Entered in RoboRumble, ELO 1672.1 after all pairings completed.

3 - finished guessfactor gun, increased adaptive bullet power slightly

Often beats CigaretBH, consistently beats GrubbmGrb, sometimes beats Phoenix (wow! didn't expect that).

Still doesn't sweat the rambots, even GrubbmThree.

Next-wave surfing is now weighted by each wave's time-to-arrive and power.

2 - full-flight threshold reduced to 80px, also adapts bullet power based on distance

Performs much better against rambots, and sometimes kills bots with good guns and movement.

Now surfs the current wave + 1/4 of the next one

1 - Version tracking starts here

Movement: Wave Surfing segmented on velocity / Gun: Linear Targeting (trig).

MovementChallenge2K6/Wavesurfing: A:99.674, B:90.784, C:94.800 - average 95.086

Can't beat all the samplebots, mostly because it can't hit them. Consistently, savagely beats RamboT and usually survives against Sanguijuela.
