(EF_IS_GAME_STATE): New.

(xdump, main): Use it.

(EF_MAX): Change to largest table ID + 1.  This is now possible
because the changes above get rid of the assumption that
empfile[0..EF_MAX-1] is only game state.  Code can now work on any
table using the advertized empfile interface, not just on game state.
(my_ef_byname): Remove, use ef_byname().
