Flashing yourself failed with a bogus "not logged on" message for
deities, and a mildly bogus "not a deity or friendly with us" message
for mortals.
Fix by simply permitting it. Not terribly useful, except perhaps for
empire-hub users, but why not.
The second patch hunk fixes a latent bug. Before, rejected deity
flashes led to a bogus "not logged on" message, now they lead to a
"not accepting" message. But deity flashes can't be rejected, so this
doesn't matter.
sendmessage() checked NF_FLASH on two places: when deciding whether to
send the message, and later when telling the player why it didn't send
a flash. This can race with the toggle command as follows: if a flash
could not be sent because the recipient's NF_FLASH was off, and the
recipient toggled it on before the flag was checked again, the flash
command claimed the sender wasn't logged on.
other. Ensure headers in include/ can be included in any order
(except for econfig-spec.h, which is special). New header types.h to
help avoid inclusion cycles. Sort include directives. Remove some
superflous includes.
