Title: Adds new instruments to dashboard plugins

There are 6 additional "text intruments" :
* app.wind angle +-180° on boat axis left/right is shown as > and <, e.g. "> 135°"
* true.wind angle +-180° on boat axis left/right is shown as > and <, eg "135° <"
* true wind direction
* true wind speed
* magnetic heading (flyspray #840)
* Air Temp (implementing MTA)
1 graphical (dial) instruments :
* true wind angle +-180° on boat axis + speed

There's a bugfix for true wind direction + speed (#564)
It also implements a workaround for the Windows bug showing Temp e.g. as "25°ÂC"
It covers a couple of flysray issues #840, parts of #632, #564, #306 (no 1),
