fix github issue #587 - incompatible save files

Browse Source 
Save files from before the 'disambiguate WHACK' patch were not
necessarily compatible with ones after it, leading to potential
restore problems.

Comments in objclass.h (from before the patch) suggested that
inappropriate assumptions were being made about field layout.
This deliberately introduces new incompatibility and increments
EDITLEVEL to caused earlier save and bones files to be thrown
away.

Fixes #587
