Resume master planning

This release includes enhanced planning engine functionality that helps to ensure that master planning batch jobs automatically resume if the main thread stops unexpectedly. This can happen if, for some reason, the batch server connection is lost during the master planning run. Before this feature was implemented, a complete rerun of master planning was needed. Now the master planning batch jobs automatically resume and continue at the place where they were interrupted. From the Master planning history log, the planner can see that the main thread was stopped unexpectedly and that the process was resumed.

Resume will only happen once. This means that if the main thread unexpectedly stops again, during the resume, it will mark it as failed in the log and not try to resume. Also, resume is only applied to regeneration and jobs that have reached at least the coverage state of the master planning calculation. If a helper thread stops unexpectedly, planning will continue with the remaining helpers.

In this release, if GTE is enabled for a legal entity, some global fields and buttons will be hidden from the user interface.
