Added flight stamina and landing recovery

Powered wingbeats spend stamina, giving landings and perches a new role in longer flights.

Project Feathers / Field recording

I added a stamina reserve for flight. Wing strokes spend energy according to their strength, while gliding uses it much more slowly.

Landing or resting on a perch restores stamina, and floating on water restores it at a slower rate. When the reserve gets very low, powered strokes become weaker.

A third blue vessel in the HUD shows the remaining stamina, with tired and exhausted states and a prompt to rest.
