-----------------------------------+----------------------------------------
 Single Flow Direction (sfd) support in r.terraflow is broken. Even when
 the -s flag is specified, multiple flow directions are used most of the
 time. Patch included.

  The main purpose of the patch is to support single flow directions
 properly (SFD) in r.terraflow. The previous version has a -s switch for
 SFD, but it is not implemented properly. Tools like Hamish's matlab
 script for converting terraflow flow direction values to sfd are
 incomplete and sometimes result in ambiguous because they are based on
 incomplete cases in the terraflow source. With the new patch, sfd should
 be supported correctly and the terraflow direction grid should only
 output 1 of 9 possible direction values (0,1,2,4,8,16,32,64,128),
 instead of the 256 directions it printed before.

  The second purpose of the patch is to eliminate gcc 4.2 warnings of the
 form

 warning: deprecated conversion from string constant to ‘char*’

  This required making two new C files to handle the option parsing in
 C-style instead of C++. The changes are minor but touched several files.
 The actual flow direction fix is rather localized. New files have been
 indented according to the SUBMITTING rules

  users using the default Multiple Flow Direction (mfd) options should
 see no changes. Users of sfd should notice that it works.
