Treat standalone DMEs as VORs when creating DB #12

Fixes #9 but this might well be an incorrect/incomplete fix.

Navaid type 3 is a VOR, type 12 is the DME component of a VOR/DME, 13 is a standalone DME. The code updates data["nav"][id] but possibly should set the second to last field to 1 for standalone DMEs, I'm not sure.

I am not sure either. Leaving this for consideration. I don't have the time now to read all the literature again. But I assume standalone DME has no place in VOR category as it does not provide directional data. Maybe it should be in the waypoints list or something.
