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.
The old code didn't honor command abortion at the following prompts:
* arm third argument
* deliver fourth argument (also simplify)
* fire third argument
* fly and recon prompt for carrier to land on: pln_onewaymission()
treated abort like empty input, which made planes attempt landing in
the sector.
* lmine second argument
* order d fourth argument
* power c nat(s) argument
* range second argument
* sail second argument
* shutdown both arguments (first one was broken in commit 84cfd670,
v4.3.10, second one never worked).
* tend third argument
(opt_AUTO_POWER, update_power): New.
(update_main): Implement AUTO_POWER.
(powe): Disable power new when AUTO_POWER is on.
(powe): New power update.
(gen_power): Compute power into buffer passed by caller, make write to
power file optional.

snxtitem()/nxtitem(), for simplicity and more uniform syntax. Country
names no longer work when specifying more than one country (snxtitem()
restriction). As usual with nxtitem(), silently ignore unsuitable
items (the old code complained and failed). Don't skip powerless
countries for power c. Closes#1025607.
(set_target): Unused, remove.
(max_pop): Use it. Don't support null argument anymore.
(nati, gen_power): Use max_population() instead of max_pop() with null
argument.
(show_sect_stats): Use max_population() to simplify the code.
(prod, upd_buildeff): Use max_population() to get correct new maximum
population for limiting work when tearing down a big city.
Previously, this was broken in upd_buildeff(). In prod(), it was
broken when the new designation had odd maximum population, which
should not occur.
