_______________________________________________________
Details:
Move database.lua from data/ to new lua/ directory in the source tree. This
makes it a bit safer to run debug builds from the build directory (though
still not recommended in insecure environments) as there's no risk of
database.lua getting overwritten by something that is allowed to write to
FREECIV_DATA_PATH directories.
1) Create lua/
2) Move data/database.lua as lua/database.lua
3) Apply patch
Directory name lua/ was chosen, because:
1) I didn't want it to start with c...o...n...f to make tab-completion on
configure & related files even harder. There's nothing starting with 'l' in
the root directory before this
2) We may have more internal lua-scripts one day (I'm mainly thinking about
providing generally-usable fragments for ruleset/scenario authors)
