Details:
Ferryboats were initially blocked as starting units as a temporary measure
to work around the issue of starting units being placed in inappropriate
terrain (r8490). When this was resolved (r12456), the temporary limitation
was not lifted.
The attached patch lifts this restriction, and adds a new test when
setting the startunits string to verify that the first unit will be native to
a terrain used when selecting starting positions (as otherwise, there may be
an infinite loop seeking for a suitable startpos for the player). As a side
effect, when considering radically different rulesets, a startunits string
suitable for one may be unsuitable for another, which may be exposed to a
player as an inability to enter "set startunits fac\n rulesetdir
land-ferries\n" when "rulesetdir land-ferries\n set startunits fac\n" works.
This patch also fixes the startunits help and code comments to reflect the
changes from patch #3352 (r21435).
