[6.20b6] from Company Regard to Jupiter: fly and wait uses travel drive, attack skips travel drive

See ~100 ships in save with current attack orders: located in company regard, ordered to attack station in Jupiter, ships move using normal travel only. If ordered to fly and wait, travel drive will work correctly.

I noticed this earlier when fighting in ZYA sectors, but wanted to make more specific test case that covers large number of gate jumps.

(this is similar issue to viewtopic.php?f=192&t=456876, but here specifically covering large multi-gate travel case)

I have also experienced this (currently playing on beta 7).

For me it seems to only happen with L ships ordered to attack a station several sectors away. If I order an M ship to attack another ship, it will engage travel drive as expected to reach its target. But if I order a destroyer to attack a station in another sector, it will not engage travel drive.
Autopilot epically failed.
