Train Couples
All trains now have a physical entity between carriages which allows you to manually couple or uncouple them just by clicking on them. Performs the same functionality as the "Connect train" and "Disconnect train" keybinds.
Train Coupler Inserter
Adds a new "train-coupler inserter" which can disconnect/disconnect trains based on the input circuit signal. Two new virtual signals are added (similar to Automatic Coupling System) which called "Couple" and "Uncouple." When passing a "couple" signal, the inserter will attempt to couple the nearest two carriages together. When passing an "uncouple" signal, the inserter will attempt to uncouple the nearest two carriages from one another. When passing both signals, the inserter will use the "Automatic coupling" settings set in the GUI.
Train Sensor
Adds a new "train sensor" which can detect nearby carriages and output the following to the circuit network: A) The carriage type, B) the carriage contents, and C) the carriage fuel.
