[Suggestion] Ability to mark uncontrollable craft as debris
Description
At the moment, it is not possible to rename or change the type of probes that have run out of power, or manned ships with no crew inside. Many of these ships will never again be used by the player, and so end up cluttering the flight list in the Tracking Station, their orbits make the map view unnecessarily messy, and their icons make it more difficult to distinguish the actually relevant ships from what is in effect only debris. However, players who want a degree of realism don't simply want to 'end flight' for these ships.
Therefore I want to suggest that an option appears in the context menu of uncontrollable ships, named "Mark as debris", which changes the ship's type to debris.

- Click your vessel in the tracking station, either the ship or its name in the list on the left.
- Click the "i" button on the right.
- Click the name of the vessel in orange on the top.
This will bring up the standard naming window, where you can click "debris" (or any other category) and rename if you'd like.
