For mods which want primary weapons to 'detonate', setting the detonation range is not reliable because, due to rounding imprecision, either the range (which detonates) or the lifetime (which does not) may happen first. So this adds a flag to always detonate a weapon when its lifetime expires. Secondary weapons have this flag by default, but primary weapons can add this flag in the $Flags list. Additionally, if the detonation range and the predicted range due to lifetime are equal, the flag is added automatically. Resolves scp-fs2open#5521.
