Wake sources

Draws the wake sources, the propeller jets' axes and the gridded wakes' grids as lines.

+ Collaboration diagram for Wake sources:

Visualization SimObject drawing the sources of every registered wake and jet field.

Each point source is a cross of its footprint diameter (yellow), each line source and jet axis a line (cyan; a jet's axis runs about 10 propeller diameters from the propeller), and each gridded wake the edges of its grid (white). What is drawn is the snapshot each field blends to (marenv::wake::WakeField::Sketch()). It is drawn again when the wakes change: on a rebuild, and while a moving wake travels, at most every RefreshPeriod. A net's private per-panel field is not registered, so only its lumped source is drawn.
