BulletSim: make all the different angularVerticalAttraction algorithms

selectable from configuration paramters.
Changed default algorithm to "1" from previous default as it seems to
handle Y axis correction a little better.
Add config file independent enablement of vehicle angular forces to
make debugging easier (independent testing of forces).
