[Freeciv-Dev] Zulu names 1st try

[Peter Schaefer <schaefer@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

I found a few Zulu words on the net, 
split them into word classes.
The function builds city names from the words.
It's probably very wrong for Zulu,
regarding flexion and syllable order, but perhaps something
like this works better for languages you know :-)

They look Zulu though.
At first I had city names with 3 syllables, but I disabled them.
A translation is included in the source.

Apply zulu_city.diff to 
common/city.c
Apply zulu_cityh.diff to
common/city.h

(OW, forgot to delete debug 1 sec - ok)
