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.
NE and SE base/standing frames. Defending and pincer-ing animations for both NE- and SE-facing frames. Stinger animation for SE-facing frames. Portrait replaced.
Sceptre (15x4) is now stronger than the uncut ruby of fire (14x4) for
regular mainline users Thursagan and Konard II. Level 3 Konrad & Li'sar
in HttT are still exceptional users of the sceptre (18x4 & 16x4).

Something was screwy about these image's alpha. Normally when I remove an alpha channel in GIMP,
it shows up white. With these images, it showed up black. Maybe they had an embedded palette or
something, I don't know, but the problem is fixed.
Something must have changed in SDL 2.0.6 that caused this issue to appear. Not sure if anything
needs to be patched in our source code, though (but not likely)
Squash and merge for three carpets terrain PR.
* Initial commit for carpets. WML, alignment, and demo only, images are unshaded place-holders.
* adding basic shading and better corner images
* completed shading for existing images
* refined large corner carpet rules
* got rid of some commented out leftovers
* initial commit for cave rug, Iwd
* regular carpet files, incomplete for now
* completed regular rug
* changed cave-rug underlayer to cave path instead of dark flagstones, and changed all rug terrain codes
* fixing some transition WML filtering for Urc (cave carpet)
* moving all chasm transitions to lower layer -290 from -90, not just those next to I* terrain
* adding a couple more stone_tile-chasm transition images
This should address the multiple gate terrain listing in issue #1990 . Whether gates are an embellishment (not worthy of a help entry) or not could be a different discussion. The overlay issue mentioned in the same issue is probably also best addressed specifically, not tied to the gate-terrain-help question.
Commit d63fe4a96e1f of #1939 changed the floor base image layering, causing problems with various terrains (cave floors, hills, mountains). This ought to fix them by letting the floors transition on top of those terrains, although it might not in all cases look as pleasing as the old way of having those terrains transition on top of floor. So, it might be desirable to supersede this with a different fix later.
* stone tile floor, only very basic transitions so far, not finished
* better transitions for stone floor tiles
* various clean-ups to stone tiles
* chasm transitions for stone tiles
* some more work on stone_floor-chasm transition images
* some corrections to terrain rules, mostly related to one of the I* terrain codes
* work on transitions, introducing new macro dealing with the case of three adjacent terrains
* transition images that use the now existing rules
* using new macro and changing some filters and layering (mostly related to terrain code Irs)
* transitions
* deleted some place-holders that were uploaded by accident
