v1.55-release

Six months too late, we've finally released this update.

TheWillyJ worked in the original FM+U development group, so we're really pleased to have his help now. Originally I was planning for this to be the last 'feature' release, but I've still got the motivation to keep going a bit longer.

We will hopefully be putting out releases more frequently, so new features can be tested quickly, and bugfixes are more "official".

However, we will be focusing on tidying up the codebase - firstly by a complete overhaul of the config system. There is also scope for validation to fix common bugs, overhaul of flansmod.cfg e.t.c.
As before, there's still a deficit of documentation so that's still needing attention. There's a huge backlog of feature requests on our Trello board, so it is unlikely that we will get to new features unless they're easy to implement and widely applicable.
