The purpose of this is both to:
a) Make the unit names more descriptive, so new players especially will have an easier time learning them and knowing what they do.
b) Make them eligible for translation, like the units of other factions are.
This commit only renames the files, along with the faction/AoH faction and wmllint.
This commit ports the text I found as the introductions to wiki
pages like this http://wiki.wesnoth.org/Drakes into the in-game
help, preserving the links to race descriptions and eras.
the khalifate are not stable enough so far to be in 1.10, they need a
lot more playtesting, rebalancing as well as adding d escriptions
because of this they can't be allowed in at the time of the string and
feature freeze since adjustments would basically be impossible then
"someone" will have to move the khalifate into an addon so that
development of them can be continued this way
this commit includes:
* removal of unit definition files
* removal of unit images
* removal of faction definition
* removal of era definition (khalifate+default era)
* removal of movement types
what was not removed:
* definition of the unit names
what someone else has to edit:
* khalifate still appear in tools/emacs_mode/wesnoth-wml-data.el but I
have no idea how to handle that file...
TODO:
* add the removal to the (players_)changelog and the release notes
Basically, this is: "unit-type" -> "Unit Type"
The exception to this rule is "qatif-al-nar", which became "Qatif-al-nar"
according to the translatable unit type name.
Some issues remain: missing art for a few units. CERTAINLY some
unknown minor bugs/issues remain with things like movetypes, wrong
defense or mp for some terrain, wrong attack icons, sounds etc.
Testing is welcome!
new map: 6p Volcano
changelog/players changelog updated as well.
* Removed Elder Wose and Shock Trooper from random_leader of the default era.
* Removed Ancient Wose and Iron Mauler from random_leader of the AoH era.
* Added Dwarvish Stalwart, Elder Wose, Shock Trooper and White Mage to

* Added Ancient Wose, Dwarvish Sentinel, Iron Mauler and Mage of Light
to random_leader of the AoH era.
