Convenient Laser Targeting

Improves your experience with the laser targeting station in the following ways:

- Mineral deposits can only be selected when you hold CTRL while clicking. No accidentally lasering your good stuff away. (To de-select, also hold CTRL!)
- Misclicking doesn't deselect the targeting station.
- Holding SHIFT you can select a whole area to be lasered clean (except minerals).
- Improve the highlighting of selected targets.
- When you select a new target a small number will appear that tells you its queue position.
- Doubleclicking on the laser button will zoom to the selected targeting station.
- All targeting stations share a target list. This helps avoid some bugs that exist in vanilla InfraSpace.
- When the target list is empty you will get a notification. If you don't want this then you can edit your save file. Look for 'notifyWhenEmpty' and set it to false. Maybe I will do a check box in the target station UI for this at some point.

Warning: With this mod it is very easy to select many objects at once. The GUI doesn't like that though and there is no way to unselect an area. If you accidentally select too much, you will have to demolish all targeting stations to quickly deselect. Also, it will still take hours to laser everything into oblivion, because lasering speed is not adressed with this mod.
The floating numbers when you select a new target basically tell you how long your queue is. Without any other mods the laser is capable of vaporizing 36 targets per hour on normal game speed if the game is running smoothly.
