The embedded files debug output was showing on every database page visit,
cluttering the logs with unnecessary information. Made it conditional on
the -verbose flag to reduce noise in production logs.
Changes:
- Added 'debug' field to Server struct
- Updated NewWebServer constructor to accept debug parameter
- Pass verbose flag from main.go to server constructor
- Made debugEmbeddedFiles() conditional on debug flag
Now debug output only appears when -verbose flag is used, keeping
normal operation clean while preserving debugging capability.

This addresses Issue #18 by correcting the CPR global decoding algorithm
implementation that was causing aircraft to appear tens of kilometers
east of their actual positions.
Root Cause:
- CPR longitude zone calculation always used NL-1 regardless of frame type
- Specification requires: even frames use NL zones, odd frames use NL-1 zones
- This caused systematic eastward displacement for all aircraft positions
Changes:
- Implement frame-consistent zone calculations per RTCA DO-260B specification
- Even frame (i=0): ni = max(1, NL - 0) = max(1, NL)
- Odd frame (i=1): ni = max(1, NL - 1)
- Add comprehensive documentation with authoritative source references
- Ensure latitude and longitude use same frame choice for consistency
Testing:
- Aircraft south of Oslo now appears correctly (was near Skarlandsvatnet)
- Aircraft north of Oslo should now appear correctly (was east of Lillestrøm)
- Systematic eastward bias eliminated

The decoder was capping all speeds at 600kt before validation, which caused:
1. Corrupt helicopter data to show false 600kt readings
2. Legitimate high-speed aircraft to be incorrectly limited
3. Validation logic in merger to miss corrupt data detection
The merger already has proper speed validation at 2000kt (Mach 3) and
position-based validation that catches impossible speeds from corrupt data
regardless of aircraft type.

- Prioritizes surveillance integrity (SIL) then position accuracy (NACp)
- Automatically calculated when operational status messages (TC 31) are received
- Displayed in aircraft popup when available
**Signal Quality Algorithm:**
- **Excellent**: High integrity (SIL ≥ 2) with precise position (NACp ≥ 9)
- **Good**: Good integrity with moderate accuracy OR very high accuracy
- **Fair**: Some integrity with basic accuracy OR high accuracy without integrity
- **Poor**: Low but usable quality indicators
- **Empty**: No quality data available
**Frontend Enhancements:**

- Users saw "Enhanced Transponder" instead of proper aircraft classification
**Solution:**
- Added dedicated TransponderCapability and TransponderLevel fields to Aircraft struct
- Updated JSON marshaling to include new transponder fields
- Modified decodeAllCallReply() to use dedicated fields instead of Category
- Enhanced popup display to show transponder info separately from aircraft type
- Removed Category overwriting in decodeCommD() for DF24 messages
**New Aircraft Fields:**
- TransponderCapability: Human-readable capability description
- TransponderLevel: Numeric capability level (0-7)
**Popup Display:**
- Aircraft type now shows correctly (Light, Medium, Heavy, etc.)
- Transponder capability displayed as separate "Transponder:" field when available
- Only shows transponder info when DF11 messages have been received
**Data Quality Indicators Clarification:**
- NACp: Navigation Accuracy Category - Position (0-11, higher = more accurate)
- NACv: Navigation Accuracy Category - Velocity (0-4, higher = more accurate)
- SIL: Surveillance Integrity Level (0-3, higher = more reliable)
Users now see both proper aircraft classification AND transponder capability
information without conflicts between different message types.

Add comprehensive position validation to filter out impossible aircraft
movements and improve trail accuracy as requested in issue #16.
**Position Validation Features:**
- Geographic coordinate bounds checking (lat: -90 to 90, lon: -180 to 180)
- Altitude validation (range: -500ft to 60,000ft)
- Speed validation (max: 2000 knots ≈ Mach 3)
- Distance jump validation (max: 500 nautical miles)
- Time consistency validation (reject out-of-order timestamps)
- Speed consistency warnings (reported vs. implied speed)
**Integration Points:**
- updateHistories(): Validates before adding to position history (trails)
- mergeAircraftData(): Validates before updating aircraft position state
- Comprehensive logging with ICAO identification for debugging
**Validation Logic:**
- Rejects obviously wrong positions that would create impossible flight paths
- Warns about high but possible speeds (>800 knots) for monitoring
- Maintains detailed logs: [POSITION_VALIDATION] ICAO ABCDEF: REJECTED/WARNING
- Performance optimized with early returns and minimal overhead
**Result:**
- Users see only realistic aircraft trails and movements
- Obviously wrong ADS-B data (teleporting, impossible speeds) filtered out
- Debug logs provide visibility into validation decisions
- Clean flight tracking without zigzag patterns or position jumps

Asset Module:
- Created internal/assets package for clean embedded static file management
- Embedded static files from single source location (static/ directory)
- Eliminated need for duplicate static files or symlinks
- Assets accessible via assets.Static from any package
Origin Configuration:
- Added origin field to configuration with latitude, longitude, and name
- Automatically calculates origin as average of source positions if not specified
- Displays origin information on startup
- Updated config.example.json to show origin usage
Architecture:
- Moved main.go back to cmd/skyview/ structure
- Updated Makefile to build from cmd/skyview
- Clean separation of concerns with reusable asset module
This provides a robust foundation for asset management and proper origin
handling for distance calculations and map centering.
