Su-7/Su-17 cockpit variant + new cockpit for M4

---

Small package of cockpit improvements for Su-7/17

-------

Su-7: cockpit by Stary - fixed misspelling and typos on labels, converted files to reduce size, fixed flaps/airbrake indicators, pilot's POV - nothing too drastic

--------------

Su-17 - original cockpit for Su-17 looks old (judging by the files, it was made in 2003), here possible replacements:

First gen Su-17s (Su-17, Su-17M (Su-20), Su-17M1 (Su-22)) get aforementioned Su-7 pit. It fits fine considering the time period.

Second gen Su-17s (Su-17M3 (Su-22M, Su-22M3), Su-17M4 (Su-22M4)) get pit from Su-25. While not a fully accurate replacement, pits of those two jets do share a lot of similarities.

Su-25K pit adapted for Su-17:

- changed airspeed and Mach indicators

- correct weapon stations indicators

Also fixed a couple of other problems: 

- original fuel indicator doesn't work - missing nodes; adapted former second engine exhaust temp indicator to show fuel quantity - it is in the lower right corner 

- altimeter missing hand for thousands (Soviet altimeters have two hands - one for hundreds, other for thousands) - just changed the single hand to show both with adapted altimeter texture 

-----------

Installation: remove old cockpit folder, cockpit_ and avionics_ files; drop in new files. new cockpit_ and avionics_ inis should be renamed accordingly to work properly

The Su-22M4 cockpit by Farid is nicely detailed! It just misses a working mirror glass on the top, centre strut of the canopy. It'd be awesome if Farid could add that and even make the M3 cockpit by reworking the M4 one. Strike Fighters very rarely gets new cockpits these days, so I'm thankful for this addition.
