The old retreat_ship() took care not to put its ship argument (it
still put other ships in a group retreat). Callers put it
unconditionally to make the change to the ship permanent.
The current retreat code puts all ships it changes, rendering sona()'s
putship() redundant. Drop it.

Group retreat still doesn't work, because when boar() passes a sunk
ship to retreat_ship(), its owner has been reset to POGO already.
This makes it impossible to find the group to retreat. Instead, it
attempts to retreat ships that sank in the same sector with group
retreat orders and with the same fleet letter assigned. If any exist,
shp_may_nav() oopses, and prevents actual retreat of these ghosts.
The other retreat conditions don't have this problem, because they
call putship(), which resets the owner, only after retreat_ship().
Making boar() work the same is not practical. Instead, add an owner
parameter to retreat_ship(), and for symmetry also to retreat_land().

Why upgrade? I'm not a lawyer, but here's my take on the differences
to version 2:
* Software patents: better protection against abuse of patents to
prevent users from exercising the rights under the GPL. I doubt
we'll get hit with a patent suit, but it's a good move just on
general principles.
* License compatibility: compatible with more free licenses, i.e. can
"steal" more free software for use in Empire. I don't expect to steal
much, but it's nice to have the option.
* Definition of "source code": modernization of some details for today's
networked world, to make it easier to distribute the software. Not
really relevant to us now, as we normally distribute full source code.
* Tivoization: this is about putting GPL-licensed software in hardware,
then make the hardware refuse to run modified software. "Neat" trick
to effectively deny its users their rights under the GPL. Abuse was
"pioneered" by TiVo (popular digital video recorders). GPLv3 forbids
it. Unlikely to become a problem for us.
* Internationalization: more careful wording, to harden the license
outside the US. The lawyers tell us it better be done that way.
* License violations: friendlier way to deal with license violations.
This has come out of past experience enforcing the GPL.
* Additional permissions: Probably not relevant to us.
Also include myself in the list of principal authors.
Replacing getrel(getnatp(US), THEM) by relations_with(US, THEM) makes
a difference only when US equals THEM. Replace in places where it's
obvious that they're not equal.
Note: getsect() sets player->owner to "player is god or owns this
sector". Thus, after getsect(..., §), sect.sct_own ==
player->cnum implies player->owner. Conversely, !player->owner
implies sect.sct_own != player->cnum. Similarly for getship(),
getplane() and nxtitem().
plane_sona() prints an empty line to make sonar contacts stand out.
Move it so the contact is visually "attached" to the right sector,
like this:
flying over sea at 15,-3
Sonar contact in 15,-3
sub #3 13,-3
flying over sea at 13,-3
Before:
flying over sea at 15,-3
Sonar contact in 15,-3
sb submarine (#3) 13,-3
flying over sea at 13,-3
The only user is reco(), so the restriction is fine. Several
functions called on behalf of mission_flags assumed it already:
plane_sweep(), sathead(), satdisp_sect(), satdisp_units(). Simplify
the rest accordingly: plane_sona() and ac_encounter() itself.
The correct method to compute indexes into a map buffer for a struct
range is deltx(), delty().
path() used deltax(), deltay() instead, which yield correct results
only for indexes up to half the world size. Pathes spanning larger
areas were screwed up.
sona(), radmap2(), satmap() also used deltax(), deltay(), but only
with arguments where those yield correct results.
draw_map() used xnorm(), ynorm() instead, which is correct, but less
clear and less efficient.
The old code used getstarg() to get an argument with a different
prompt than snxtitem() uses, then passed the value to snxtitem()
unchecked. If the player aborts, getstarg() returns a null pointer,
and snxtitem() prompts again. Affected:
* load/lload plane/land third argument; load_plane_ship(),
load_land_ship(), load_plane_land(), load_land_land()
* bomb, drop, fly, paradrop, recon and sweep second argument;
get_planes()
* tend and ltend second and fourth argument; ltend(), tend(),
tend_land()
* mission second argument; mission()
Fix by making snxtitem() taking a prompt argument, null pointer
requests the old prompt.
Use that to simplify multifire() and torp(). Change the other callers
to pass NULL.
New pln_att(), pln_def(), pln_acc(), pln_range_max(), pln_load()
replace the struct plnstr members with the same names.
Make plane selectors att and def virtual.

(except for econfig-spec.h, which is special). New header types.h to
help avoid inclusion cycles. Sort include directives. Remove some
superflous includes.

collapse to shiplist function set (add,free,print,on). Fix bug where ship

#950514.
(line_of_sight): There's just one straight line between two points on
a plane, but on a torus there are four. Code assumed plane, and thus
could screw up near the origin. Pick a shortest line of the four.
Partial fix for #950510.
