[Freeciv-Dev] [Patch] Allow registry loading from file pointers

[Vasco Alexandre Da Silva Costa <vasc@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hello,

This patch allows to read registry section_file's from file pointers
instead of filenames. This functionality is required for parsing the
client output provided by the new metaserver.

The metaserver sample implementation courtesy of Paul Zastoupil can be
seen here in an HTML format using a standard browser:

http://meta.freeciv.org/metaserver.phtml

To see an example of the information presented by the metaserver to the
clients in registry format:

http://meta.freeciv.org/metaserver.phtml?client=all


I hope to be able to post server and client patches to support the new
metaserver this week. My current implementation is not yet debugged or
featureful.
