[Bug-gnubg] Problems with import of oldfibs files

[Jim Segrave]

While looking into the many reaons gnubg won't import a user's fibs
log, I found the following:

gnubg expects a game to start with a score line:

score %d-%d in a %d ...

I don't know if this is a valid prerequisite.

A worse problem is that import.c calls CanonicalMoveOrder() to process
the listed moves. This works well for player 1, whose moves are from
high numbers to low, it doesn't work for player 0, whose moves are
from low numbers to high. A specific case is a valid move:

19/18 18/off, which became anMovep[] = { 17, -1, 18, 17, -1, -1, -1, -1}

which was not a legal move, as the 18 point was
empty. CanonicalMoveOrder needs to be given a direction flag to allow
it to sort the moves into the correct order.
