New ships (deal or Market) come full on Manual refueling; save version
3 puts every existing ship on Manual. The balance simulator refuels only
when a job needs it (decisions 0.5.111, 0.5.112).

Five tutorial runs before the deal and a tutorial XP multiplier of 2.
The deal no longer waits for the loaner to be back at Earth, since five
runs end at the Moon; accepting it still puts the avatar at Earth.

Ships carry fuel: a leg burns from the tank at departure (no credits),
dispatch needs the fuel on board (not-enough-fuel), a leg's fuel cost
is fuel burned x the tank's average price, and Auto top-up refills on
landing with what the credits cover. The save gains tank fields (save
version 2, migration fills every tank). Market ships arrive full; the
deal's ships come with a quarter tank to keep the balance targets.
