Clean up bmap commands' flags argument

Browse source 
parse_map_flags() silently truncates map flags after the first 't' or
'r'.  This makes it accept arguments "true" and "revert".  However, it
also breaks the perfectly sensible argument "ts", which should show
ships just like "st", but doesn't.

info bmap & friends document arguments "true" and "revert", and also
suggest flags 't' and 'r'.  What a mess.

Make argument "revert" a special case.  Deprecate flag 'r', and clean
up truncation there.

Don't truncate after flag 't'.  If any bad flags follow, ignore
everything after 't', but deprecate that usage.

You actually have two bmaps. One which is created by the server; this
one is called your 'true' bmap. You can view your true bmap at any
time using the
.SY "sbmap <SECTS|SHIP> true"
command. However, usually when you view your bmap, you are looking at
time using the 't' bmap flag.
However, usually when you view your bmap, you are looking at
your 'working' bmap. The only difference between your working bmap
and your true bmap is that your working bmap also contains
designations put on there by you using the 'bdes' command, and by your
