This PR adds support for new parameters in the parachute library, allowing them to be displayed as sortable and filterable columns in the component selection interface. The following attributes have been added:

Mass
CDArea
DragCoefficient
SurfaceArea
PackedLength
PackedDiameter

Some columns remained empty because, for certain types of parachutes, not all information is available in the database.

I see that the new columns are sortable, but how are they filterable? Also, for the sake of people on small screens, would it be reasonable to make it possible to hide table columns?

My strategy is generally just to put the columns I don't care about all the way to the right. Out of sight, out of mind.

However, I just went into the parts library and it looks like if you right click on a header you can show/hide all the available columns. Who knew!

Who knew!

Not me, obviously! I just edited my comment to strike eliminate that suggestion.

I would hide some of these options by default. The dialog is really packed now...

And/or change the table to have a horizontal scroll bar.
