Archeologists can decipher scroll labels

Browse Source 
Prior to this commit, Archeologists had an incredibly difficult
start, worse than was intended. This is intended to make it a bit
easier (whilst making the role more different from other roles) via
allowing them to identify scroll types earlier in the game than the
other roles are able to (they do it using a knowledge of ancient
languages that lets them read scroll labels that other roles
couldn't).
