Fix: Be more strict what it means for an aircraft to be in a hangar: It's not just being stopped on a hangar tile

Fix: "Erroneous train reversal on waypoints". When processing the next train order, do not even consider reversing the train if the last order was to a waypoint.

Fix: [NTP] properly check for railtypes on non-plain-rail-tiles
