Hmm... the cylinderindex here is 0 because there are no gas changes and
that's the default. So this condition works. But I'm not sure this is the
right way to do this. Shouldn't there be a function instead that says
something like

if (dive->dc.dctype == CCR && cylinderindex == 0)
	cylinderindex = dive->diluent_cylinder_index;

and then we use cylinderindex again?

I may be nit-picking here, but I'd really like to figure out a very clean,
well documented way to deal with the CCR phase of a dive and no surprises
when we have different DCs and people switch to bailout...

e.g., imagine a diver who (for whatever reason) has O2 as cylinder 0,
bailout gas as cylinder 1 and diluent as cylinder 2.

I'm not sure this is realistic, but it would make your code rather hard to
understand.

And the one thing I have learned in the last few years of working on
Subsurface is to make as few assumptions as possible about what data we
get from a dive computer.
