[Freeciv-Dev] (PR#8914) ruleset starting units list

["James Canete" <use_less@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

<URL: http://rt.freeciv.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=8914 >

Here's an implementation of startunits as a server string variable.

startunits defaults to "cwx"

Characters and corresponding roles:
c: F_CITIES
w: F_SETTLERS
x: L_EXPLORER
k: F_GAMELOSS
s: F_DIPLOMAT
f: L_FERRYBOAT
d: L_DEFEND_GOOD
a: L_ATTACK_FAST
A: L_ATTACK_STRONG

issues:
-Choosing a unit role for which there is no corresponding unit type
(such as gameloss) will crash the server.  I'm not sure where to put a
check for this.
-A ferryboat can be created in a completely landlocked area.
-There was a minor bug in aidiplomat.c which caused a crash when a
diplomat unit had nothing to do.  This was fixed.
