with last_movement_sense (which was necessary to fix the animation
when the grid was only 2 squares wide in either dimension). Movement
sense is now inverted if the move being animated is an undo.

specifically, the elapsed time between calls varies much more with
GTK than it does under Windows. Therefore, I now take my own time
readings on every timer call, and this appears to have made the
animations run at closer to the same speed between platforms. Having
done that, I decided some of them were at the _wrong_ speed, and
fiddled with each game's timings as well.

is (a) pretty feeble, and (b) means that although Net seeds transfer
between platforms and still generate the same game, there's a
suspicious discrepancy in the typical seed _generated_ by each
platform.
I have a better RNG kicking around in this code base already, so
I'll just use it. Each midend has its own random_state, which it
passes to new_game_seed() as required. A handy consequence of this
is that initial seed data is now passed to midend_new(), which means
that new platform implementors are unlikely to forget to seed the
RNG because failure to do so causes a compile error!

mechanism I've just invented (the midend handles the standard game
selection configuration). Each game is now required to validate its
own seed data before attempting to base a game on it and potentially
confusing itself.
