Holding Company

Updated the way vehicle transfers work for semis. Now the code will smartly detect if a trailer is attached, and also if that trailer has equipment onboard. In the case of either, or both being true, it will move the trailer and equipment to the new company
A code was also ran to update all existing semis in the system, so that if they were affected by this earlier transfer bug/function issue, they will now be proper (Symptoms of this included trailers/equipment disappearing on unload/unhook, broken equipment images on trailers, etc)
The two above represent the culmination of a long period of bug hunting and adjusting, then formulating a plan to fix the issue for all 50,000 trucks at once. Enjoy!
