Create Aeronautics Lift Patch

Attempts to fix the Sable lift calculation to be the proper quadratic increase with velocity for better Aerodynamics in Create Aeronautics

Description

Changes the Sable lift and drag calculations to properly calculate it as a quadratic increase with velocity rather than the linear it currently is.
This should make it easier to make both large and small planes in Aeronautics since you wont need as much wing area to generate lift.

This is the first mod I have ever made and I only did some light testing with it, if the coefficients are a little off they can be changed in the ldfix config.
There is also no guarantee I will continue to update this as later versions come out.

Dependencies:
Sable - https://modrinth.com/mod/sable
Create - https://modrinth.com/mod/create
Create Aeronautics - https://modrinth.com/mod/create-aeronautics

**Known issue with the copycat sails mod where due to their added multipliers excessive lift force is produced.

-Current fix: Change the lift scalar in the copycat sails compat config from 1.75 to 0.75 for best results.
