Captain, go back to where you started from!

Description
This very small mod simply remembers the starting location for a ship sent on a command
and then restores that location at the end of the command.

In particular, this enables use of the refine command after a ship is assigned via
strategy view to mine in a sector: it'll complete the refine command, then return to
the same sector and continue mining. It also stops miners and salvagers from exiting
their commands into really dumb places like pirate shipyard sectors.

The "return to where you started" behavior is enabled for:
- Mining
- Salvaging
- Refining

Other commands will still move the ship when appropriate.

That actually seems reasonable for ending sectors

It's great to see Boxelware doing it!

2.0.7 currently adds this behavior to Mining and Salvaging, but curiously *not* refining. So the mod still has some utility even with the current beta branch changes.

If this gets completely obsolete, I'll change or remove it from the workshop once the change reaches releases. Also: if there are commands that you think should do this that aren't, please let me know here. My stance is that it's reasonable for a ship to end up in a different, populated sector if it's something like a procure, sell, trade, or restock command, but not reasonable to end up in some random sector in the mission area or in a sector type that has nothing to do with what you were supposed to be doing.

This behavior is actually being tested on the dev branch so may be integrated on release
