Change checksect() not to abandon occupied sectors to the old owner
when there is no military and no land units. This effectively
restores pre-Chainsaw 3 behavior. Matching change to would_abandon().
Rationale. Traditional ways to change sector owner:
(1) Attack, assault, paradrop can transfer a sector to the attacker,
in take_def().
(2) Guerrilla warfare at the update can transfer a sector to the old
owner, in guerilla(). This happens when che kill all military and
the sector is sufficiently disloyal to the owner.
(3) Whenever all civilians, military and land units are removed from a
sector, no matter how, it silently reverts to the deity, in
checksect().
Chainsaw 3 added:
(4) Whenever all military and land units are removed from an occupied
sector, no matter how, it silently reverts to the old owner, in
checksect().
This addition isn't seamless. Funnies include:
* When che kill all military and land units, but the sector is loyal,
(3) doesn't transfer to the old owner. But since there's no
military and land units left, (4) transfers it anyway, only without
telling the lucky old owner. The latter transfer is buggy:
checksect() runs only on ef_read() and ef_write(), not the update
(bug#1010856), so the silent transfer is delayed until the next
ef_write(). But code using ef_read() sees it right away. For
instance, the path finder, which doesn't use ef_read(), can route a
path through a sector lost that way. The actual move, which does
use ef_read(), then chokes on that path.
* When you attack a sector, and get defeated with the help of reacting
land units, but succeed in killing the *local* defenders, (4) makes
the sector silently revert to the old owner. Which might be
somebody who wasn't involved in the fight, and gets no notification
whatsoever of his windfall.
* You can abandon a sector to the old-owner by removing all military
and land units from it, in a myriad of ways. Some ways ask you for
confirmation (move, march, load), many don't (navigate, plane
construction, delivery; arguably bugs), and others simply don't let
you (paradrop, fly, distribution).
This problem also exists for abandoning to deity, i.e. through (3)
instead of (4). Some ways to move out civilians don't let you do
that (distribute), but most do. However, accidentally abandoning an
empty sector to deity is less serious than a populated one to
another player.
In my opinion, (4) doesn't add much to the game, and fixing the
funnies isn't worth the effort.
(emp_obj_chr_name): New. Returns a pointer to the characteristics name
for an empobj.
(unit_map): Simplify unit_map() by using get_empobjp() and
emp_obj_chr_name().
(map, cmd_move_map): Switch to EF_SHIP as unit_map does not default
to EF_SHIP for EF_BAD anymore.
(map): Call new function do_map().
(display_region_map): Modify to use do_map() instead of map().
(tran_nmap, tran_pmap, cmd_move_map): Modify to accomodate
the modified display_region_map() function.
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.
and tran_pmap() so that unit number arguments are interpreted
sensibly. Users changed.
(display_region_map): New.
(cmd_move_map, tran_nmap, tran_pmap): Use it.

plague.h where appropriate.
Remove some 'register' keywords at the same time.
No functional changes.
I_BAR, I_FOOD, I_OIL, I_LCM, I_HCM, I_UW, I_RAD, I_MAX): Turn macros
into enumeration constants.
(i_type): New. Use where appropriate. No functional changes, except
that I_NONE is now catched properly in a few places.
(ichr): Set IPKG packing bonus for all sectors to 1.
(move): Use it. No functional change.
(deliver, dodistribute): Use it. Inefficient sectors now get IPKG
instead of NPKG packing bonus, cutting civilian packing bonus from 10
to 1.
(dodistribute): Export uses the better of sector or distribution
center packing bonus. Previously, it assumed that distribution center
WPKG packing is always best. Which is currently true, but needlessly
breaks the abstraction.

when moving civilians to a sector without civilians. Found and
debugged by Jeff Cotter. Closes#1005005.

(load_comm_ship, load_comm_land, rese): Use it instead of 9999.

(check_market, explore, move, pln_dropoff): Use it instead of 32767.
(unload_it): Use it instead of 99999 (which couldn't possibly work,
but what do you expect from the autonav code).
To save space, the ancients invented `variables': a collection of
key-value pairs, missing means zero value, space for `enough' keys.
This complicates the code, as assigning to a `variable' can fail for
lack of space. Over time, `enough' increased, and for quite some time
now `variables' have been *wasting* space. This changeset replaces
them, except in struct mchrstr, struct lchrstr and struct pchrstr,
where they are read-only, and will be replaced later. It is only a
first step; further cleanup is required. To simplify and minimize
this necessarily huge changeset, the new item[] arrays have an unused
slot 0, and the old variable types V_CIVIL, ... are still defined, but
must have the same values as the item types I_CIVIL, ...
effect. Replace calls by struct assignment where possible. Replace
clear buffer, copy string to buffer by strncpy(). Use assignment to
clear when that's clearer. Replace overlapping copy through bounce
buffer by memmove(). Replace rest by standard memset() and memcpy().
Also use sizeof() instead of literal array sizes for robustness, and
instead of symbolic array sizes for clarity.
