CBA_A3 v3.9.0.181012

CBA v3.9 adds the first pass of Joint Ammo and Magazines, including CBA_fnc_compatibleMagazines, a high performance, magazine well compatible function that reports the loadable magazines of a weapon.
Server passwords will be remembered by the game and automatically entered when revisiting a server (there is a setting to disable this). The mission browser now has a search bar. The update adds French, Polish, German and Turkish translations. There are also some QOL changes for the settings and keybinding menus.
