- get_terrain and set_terrain replaced with direct indexing operations
- get_map_size mostly replaced with either the iterator or an on_board call.
Only a few cases really needed to know the size of the map for some other purpose.
- shroud and fog operations, village owner, time areas, and location filters
- get_terrain_info replaced with terrain_types table
- Map generation functions create_map and create_filter
Also backtracked the removal of wesnoth.get_recall_units, which is now available as wesnoth.units.find_on_recall - it's just more convenient than passing x=recall to wesnoth.units.find
This is done for consistency with similar functions in mainline, and so that the function actual returns what it name says. This breaks backward compatibility, but note that the only practical difference for that is the order in which the arguments are returned, as both 'closest_enemy' and 'location' contain the enemy location in .x/.y format.
The ai_helper functions are optimized for speed (as much as possible in a general setting) and do all the necessary tests. For example, get_units_with_attacks() checks both whether the unit has attacks left, and whether it has any attacks in the first place.

The relative ranking of the CA scores is not changed, except for one case when two CAs had the same score.
Reasons:
- All scores should be lower than the scores of the default Goto CA (200,000) and the default scores of most Micro AIs (300,000).
- Break tie, resulting in uncertain order of execution, of place_healers and retreat_injured CA. Healers should be placed first, to allow retreating injured units to adjacent hexes.
- Set default for generic_recruit_engine to slightly above default AI recruiting score. That way it takes effect even if the default CA is not removed.
- Increase move_to_any_enemy CA score from 1 to 1,000. It is still the lowest score that way, but allows for setting up custom CAs with even lower scores (even if it is just for end-of-turn statistics or the like).

Now that all the AIs use external CAs, there is no need to use the persistent 'data' variable any more, unless information is to be exchanged between different CAs or is supposed to be persistent across save/load cycles.
