Summary0019607: Explosions wash out icons
DescriptionThis is a followon in a way to Hawk's bug report 0019605. If you load this save game and go to the battle, you'll see that there are lots of explosions, and they totally wash out the icons around them in a way that looks really weird.

Thanks!

* Fixed a bug with the various type of geometry-based explosions (flak, lightning, etc) so that they now render additively in the transparent queue rather than the overlay queue, and so that they read from the zbuffer but no longer write to it.
** This changes the effects a fair bit so that they no longer do things like eat into one another or the ship icons around them.
** These will need further tuning to not be over-bright in huge battles, and they're on our list for further improvements visually anyway, but for now it's a good enough start.
