This PR implements automatic redirection of former amateur radio callsigns to their current callsigns, addressing the issue where former calls like KO4JZT were showing stale data instead of the current information for that operator.
Problem
Former callsigns were displaying outdated license information as if they were still active. For example, KO4JZT would show old data instead of redirecting to or showing the same data as the operator's current vanity callsign WW0CJ.
Solution
The solution leverages the FCC's FRN (FCC Registration Number) system, which uniquely identifies each person and persists across callsign changes:
Added CallRedirections data structure to track:
Enhanced ULS processing with date-aware logic:
Updated user interfaces to seamlessly handle redirections:
