cermet in LDS

 Version: 0.5.0
 Date: 2021-01-15
   Changes:
+    - New default setting for cermet:
+      Cermet is used in LDS (instead of pure Zirconia). Recipe is balanced
+      around this. In space exploration, Cermet is also used in Aeroframe Scaffolds.
+      This may eventually become the only option when cermet is enabled, if
+      supporting the setting gets too difficult. I will support the setting
+      for at least a few months.
     - New Cermet Graphics
+    - Cermet tech is available earlier.
     - Zircon used instead of iron ore in concrete (use Bypass recipes if you wish)
     - Zirconium processing no longer a prerequisite to chemical science
