Explain upwind percentage definition #638

Description

@G0rocks

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
There is a value called upwind percentage which the plugin can show for routes and I'm unsure for which angles it applies to.
When I look up on google.com "opencpn weather routing upwind percentage" then the top results are https://opencpn-manuals.github.io/main/weather_routing/index.html (which does not detail it when I do ctrf+F+"upwind") and I also found this page https://opencpn.org/wiki/dokuwiki/doku.php?id=opencpn:manual_basic:terminology which also does not detail it.

Describe the solution you'd like
Show for which angle it applies to. Either in plugin or documentation.

Describe alternatives you've considered
When looking up the definition for upwind % then it seems that there is not one definitive answer that every human adheres to.
