To make missions even more dynamic it would be great to have the support for "lanes".

General Idea

Lanes are where MissionStage are grouped together.
So you can have multiple "threads" inside of your mission.

Current flows and ideas

A stage is started when it meets the requirements.
- All existing previous stages in it's lane need to be completed.
  In example: A4 requires A1, A2 to be completed. A3 does not exist and is therefore deemed "completed".
- GlobalStage primary lane needs to be at or above it's own stage number
  In example: A4 requires STAGE 3 to be completed.

This enables the ME to create:

Multiple independent lanes
Multi-verse style
Merging into the "primary" lane when all need to come together.

Current Blocker/Issue

CAP only will look at the "global" stage, at the moment.
The naming convention for the CAP units does not easily support lanes.

It could, but the naming conventions easily get confusing and insanely long.

OnCompletion handling for lanes
StageLane Mermaid diagram creation for easier visualisation
OnStageNumberChanged implementation
- Pre-activation on correct stage and stagelane
- Activation on correct stage and stagelane
wired into persistence
Correctly wire for "pre-activation"

Although CAP compatibility is not figured out.

I've started on this anyway.
It would still be worth while and it will have the options to kinda have branches.

CAP integration will be a seperate issue.
