[RFE] Add button to switch Variable Range Targeting quirk between short/long during scenarios

[PhoenixHeart512]

Enhancement Type *

Implementation of Missing Official Rule

Brief Description of Enhancement *

I am requesting a way to switch the Variable Range Targeting (VRT) quirk between short and long modes during the turn End Phase as described in BMM on p. 86.

My initial thought is a button to click and switch between them on the bottom bar, similar to the "weapon mode" button for changing RAC shot count, etc, but if there is a better or more user friendly way to implement it then great.

Use Cases or Rationale

Currently VRT is just a worse version of Improved Targeting Short/Long but it could be so much cooler
