Adds advanced visual feedback system for 3D radar aircraft with real-time signal quality indicators:
Signal Quality Visualization:
- Opacity mapping based on signal strength (-60 to -5 dBFS range)
- Emissive glow intensity reflects signal quality (Excellent/Good/Fair/Poor)
- Multi-source data indicators (small spheres for aircraft with multiple receivers)
- Dynamic signal strength analysis from aircraft sources data
- Real-time updates with changing signal conditions
Enhanced Trail System:
- Gradient coloring with age-based fading (30% to 100% intensity)
- Aircraft type-based trail colors (cyan=helicopter, blue=heavy, yellow=light, teal=medium)
- Signal quality affects trail brightness and visibility
- Custom BufferGeometry with per-vertex colors
- Memory-efficient geometry disposal and rebuilding
Technical Improvements:
- Modular signal data extraction from aircraft sources
- Linear signal strength to opacity mapping
- Quality multiplier system for visual feedback
- Proper Three.js BufferAttribute management
- Dynamic visual updates synchronized with aircraft data
Visual Results:
- Strong signals = bright, opaque aircraft with vivid trails
- Weak signals = dim, transparent aircraft with faded trails
- Multi-source aircraft display small indicator spheres
- Trail colors match aircraft types for consistency
- Smooth gradient effects enhance flight path visualization
Addresses core signal quality and trail enhancement requirements from issue #42.
