Feature request: Turret weapon

[tropicalpioneer]

I remember in Frontier there was a turret mount for weapons, on bigger and less agile ships.
I am thinking how it would make it easier to defend yourself on the Bluenose.

There are branches, and other places where turrets are discussed. fluffy had an implementation of it

JohnJ did a Frontier style implementation, I might have a copy of that branch from... many years ago, or his GitHub might still have it.
Nozmajner did me a lovely model of a turret and I got as far as mounting it ingame on a ship but I couldn't get my brain around the maths for orienting and pointing... they would have been auto-turrets, i.e. You choose the target and it just shoots them without player control.
