uncapped fuel scaling (quadratic)

Description
Fuel cost for ftl travel is now scaling with both distance and ship size. Ship size is capped at tier 10; for higher tiers, the value for tier 6 is used: this should make this compatible with BYOS and CYOS, and also for tier 9/10 ships. The formula for scaling is:
fuel cost = (default cost/10)*(distance*(shiptier-2)^(2/3) + (1/3000)*distance^2) .

This is intended to be used with the max fuel scaling with ship size mod, but it is also fine to use standalone.

If you are using this mod without the max fuel scaling with ship size mod, I recommend using some mod that is lowering the default fuel cost (I made one, but there is probably others that I couldn't find), or with some mod that is increasing the default max fuel (this example by Dioxygen Difluoride seems to work).

@aurorae Apologies. It looks like the function I used to find the destination star was returning null for some reason. I have since made a fix for this. It seems to work. Thank you for reporting this error.

Attempting to visit another solar system prints this error in the log and the ship does not do anything: https://pastebin.com/dnFuzCQh
