Added new checkbox to the Trade Routes form to define a calculated route as a "split" route.

This split will be both for the Exposure Days and the Exposure amount.

Additionally the checkbox was added to the Exposure details on the cargo form as well so that users can de-select this on trades that they do not want to split.

The primary purpose of this split route exposure is to be able to properly capture the exposure of vessels that do not fit into a specific class or type against the indices for the correct amounts.
