Read call history files, and fill the exchange from them

Browse Source 
N1MM's format, so a file published for a contest is read as it is: # comments,
!!Order!! naming the columns of the lines after it, semicolons in preference to
commas so user text can hold a comma, and a default column order for a file
that names none. The directives that change what is stored are acted on;
!!Order!! can appear again part way through, because these files are usually
several files stuck together.

Leaving the callsign box fills what the file knows into the exchange boxes that
are still empty. A box with something in it is left alone: what the station
actually sends beats what somebody published months ago. The zone comes from
the CqZone or the ITUZone column depending on which the contest asks for, and a
file with no Sect falls back to State.

The check window's two missing columns are in. History lists matching calls
from the file. Exchange is not about callsigns at all: it offers the values the
exchange box with the cursor in it can hold, which is what N1MM's exchange pane
does — it searches the contest's list of valid exchanges, not the log.
CheckCandidate.Call is now Text, because an exchange value is not a call.

The section-validating directives are read and passed over rather than acted
on. Acting on them means holding N1MM's section lists and its rules about
retired sections, and getting that wrong throws away good data.

Running it caught what the unit tests could not: the exchange was filled and
scored but the boxes on screen still looked empty, because nothing resynced
them.

### Call history files
**Config → Call History File…** points at one of the files published before a
contest. It is N1MM's format, so a file written for N1MM is read as it is:
`#` comments, `!!Order!!` naming the columns of the lines after it, semicolons
in preference to commas, and the directives that change what is stored —
`!!FourCharGridSq!!`, `!!NoLoc2AltGrid!!`, `!!MapStateToSect!!`,
`!!AppendUserText!!` and `!!NoAppendUserText!!`.
Leaving the callsign box fills what the file knows into the exchange boxes that
are still empty. A box with something in it is left alone: what the other
station actually sends beats what somebody published months ago. The check
window gets a History column of matching calls.
The section-validating directives — `!!Validate50State!!`,
`!!ValidateArrlSection!!`, `!!MapOnSection!!`, `!!GTA2GH_NT2TER!!` — are read
and passed over rather than acted on. Throwing data away on a section list this
program does not hold would be worse than keeping it.
### The check window
Five columns, kept apart because they answer different questions: **Log** is
what this station copied itself, **Master** is a guess about the whole world,
**History** is what was published before the contest, **Bandmap** is somebody
else's claim, and **Exchange** offers the values the exchange box with the
cursor in it can hold — the ARRL sections, or the states and provinces. A
serial number or a report has no list behind it, so that column stays empty
rather than guessing.
### Radios
**Config → Radios** takes a `rigctld` address per radio. Each radio needs its
