Fixes a few small issues with the calculations. In particular, this makes it work from the southern hemisphere.

Fixes #7
Maybe fixes #6 ?

Use the msbuild copy target instead of xcopy; change file encoding to
utf-8.
- Use double precision quaternion
- Make sure the orbit normal always points roughly northwards
- The 'East' vector used to point to the west;
- Replace latitude with abs(latitude) for checking against inclinations

Fixes #7

Quite surprised that this hasn't been merged, this is an essential mod within the RP-1 suite, and having it not work for launch sites in the southern hemisphere is a pretty serious bug. (noticed this from https://discord.com/channels/319857228905447436/319857228905447436/1324677544670138410)
@RCrockford Do you mind merging this?

I can confirm that this PR works without issues after testing btw, I forgot to mention that before.

This is from Mahia, a southern hemisphere launch site: (ignore the additional fields, that's from here)
