(owned_and_navigable): Do not check the real sector, only the bmap.

Browse source 
Checking the real sector leaks information, which can be abused to
test whether an arbitrary sector is unfriendly or an inefficient
harbor or bridge, at the cost of some ship mobility (I think).
Initially broken ca. 1993, went through several changes, but the leak
survived them all.
