Plate solving for manual mounts

For using plate solving with manual mounts a new looping option is added to the Alignment module.

For manually positioning your mount, select the Telescope Simulator as mount and roughly sync to the target position. Now select the sync mode for the solver, select the looping option and start solving by clicking "Capture & Solve". After the first plate solving run, the stars map shops you the real position your mount is pointing to. Now move your mount towards your target until you have positioned the mount as desired. Then press "Stop" to finish.
