Switching a runway during operations

Fixed: When a runway was switched to "arrivals only" during operations, aircraft already assigned to it for departure would stop. They waited indefinitely for a clearance that could no longer be granted there — whether they were still taxiing towards the runway or already holding at the threshold.

Affected aircraft now look for another departure runway right away, and a message tells you how many were redirected. If no other departure runway is available, they wait until one becomes free again.

Arriving aircraft are unaffected and complete their landing as usual.
