decl_early_init() is called when we are starting a game. On first
start, it validates that global state is in the expected state.
When called on subsequent starts, it initializes global state to
expected state.

This commit is an attempt to address the complaints about
the orc town variation taking away lots of stuff that is
normally available in mine town. The statement in the level
description says "A tragic accident has occurred in Frontier
Town...It has been overrun by orcs."
The changes in this commit attempt to uphold that premise,
while making things a bit more interesting and perhaps
more palatable for the player.
This update does the following in keeping with the mythos:
- While many of the orcs still remain to wander about the
level, many of the orcs took off deeper into the mines with
some of the stuff that they plundered. You may now be
able to hunt some of it down.
- Adds some appearance of this particular horde of marauding
orcs working as part of a larger collective.
- This evolves the Orc Town mine town variation into a
a feature over multiple levels of The Gnomish Mines,
rather than just the single-level "feature" that it was
previously.
- You may have to work longer and a bit harder for some
things than other mine town variations, but at least with
these changes, there is hope that some of it may be found
elsewhere.
Game mechanics notes (maybe spoily?)
- Add mechanism to place objects into limbo (okay, really
place them onto the migrating_objs list for transferring
between levels etc.) and destine them
to become part of the monster inventory of a particular
species. In this particular usage case, it's using the
M2_ORC flag setting to identify the recipients.
- At present, there is no mechanism in the level compiler
for placing objects onto the migrating objects, nor
with more sophisticated landing logic, so a somewhat
kludgy hard-coded fixup and supporting routines were used.
Some day the need for that might change if additional
capabilities move to the level compiler.
This is a NetHack-3.6.2-beta01 update. Please give it a workout.
Fixes#127
I started out just reformatting the function header for regularize()
but ended up doing miscellaneous other stuff, including some code
changes. I think the CHDIR code is a bit cleaner now, but shouldn't
have any differences in behavior.
Along the way I noticed that 'nethack -dpath' or 'nethack -d path'
modifies argv[] before PANICTRACE attempted to save argv[0], so would
break having nethack invoke gdb to get a backtrace. ('ARGV0' seems to
be unnecessary since 'hname' holds the same value, but I didn't get rid
of it....)
Make 'zeromonst' global instead of local to makemon.c. Its address
isn't used as a special value like &zeroobj, but it is useful to
have available for initializing various pseudo-monsters.

MSGTYPE allows the user to define how messages in the message
area behave. For example:
MSGTYPE=stop "You swap places with "
would always make that message prompt for -more-. Allowed types
are "show" (normal message), "hide" (do not show), "stop" (wait
for user), and "norep" (do not repeat message).
Adding this, because it's relatively simple, proven to work, and
it seemed to be the major thing betatesters felt was lacking when
compared to NAO.
I'll push a formatting guide at some point. There may still be
outstanding changes, but please feel free to resolve those as you arrive
a them.
To the best of my knowledge, there is no changes to the actual code
content, but the formatter does have the occasional bug. If you run into
an issue, please fix it!

Groundwork for cleaning up the X11 sources, where gcc with the option
settings specified in the OSX hints file currently generates close to
400 warnings for win/X11/*.c.
lint.h is included by hack.h, and I've moved the debugpline stuff from
the latter to the former to hide it better. (By rights it belongs in
debug.h or something of the sort, but I didn't want to go that far.)
Makefile and project dependencies need to catch up.
nhStr() hides a cast to char *, and is intended to by used on string
literals where it isn't feasible to maintain the 'const' attribute.
(A pernicious problem with X11 code, where the include situation can
become very convoluted, and many, MANY string literals are hidden
behind macros to look like keyword-type tokens.)
nhUse() can be used to force a fake usage on something which triggers
an unused parameter warning. There are a 6 or 8 or 10 places in the
core code where that applies, but so far I have't touched any of them.
There's a tradeoff since it will result in some worthless code being
generated and executed, but is much simpler than tacking on compiler-
specific workarounds like '#pragma unused' or gcc's __attribute__ hack.
-Add a boolean option menucolors to toggle menu color
-Add MENUCOLOR -config file option
TODO:
-Better support for win32
-Support more windowports
-Update Guidebook
-Allow changing menucolor lines in-game
Instead of just "while helpless", the death reason will tell
more explicitly why the player was helpless. For example:
"while frozen by a monster's gaze"

Add 'o' to "i a v g c" disclosure set, to display final dungeon
overview at end of game. It lists all levels visited rather than just
those that #overview considers to be interesting, but it doesn't reveal
any undiscovered aspects of those levels except for the presence of bones.
(I think revealing shops and altars and such would be worthwhile, but the
data for that isn't handy at the time.) If the game ends due to death,
the bones section of the current level will have "you, <reason you died>"
(before any real bones entries for that level). That occurs before bones
file creation so it doesn't give away whether bones are being saved.
end.c includes some unrelated lint cleanup.
Guidebook.{mn,tex} updates the section for autopickup_exceptions as
well as for disclose. It had some odd looking indentation due to various
explicit paragraph breaks. I took "experimental" out of its description
since it was moved out of the experimental section of config.h long ago.
The revised Guidebook.tex is untested.
Rename ``kickobj'' to ``kickedobj'' so that the tense matches that
of ``thrownobj''. Also, move their declarations to decl.h and their
definitions to decl.c since usage has spread from dokick.c/dothrow.c to
various files and is about to expand to another one.
On crash signal or panic(), use a configurable method to get a stacktrace
the user can easily report to us. Currently only for Unix/Linux and only
ifdef BETA. Hopefully ports can add additional methods.
Bits:
- linux hints file had PREFIX definition in the wrong place
- sample sysconf file used wrong delimiter for WIZARDS
- fix grammar error in support message when using sysconf.wizards
- options.c comment typo
- capitalize "Crash test" output from #panic command
