Tolerate incorrect solutions in Inertia
The "solve" operation in Inertia generates a proposed solution as a
move string. But if such a move string is loaded from a save file it
might not actually describe a solution. If that happens then it's
possible to reach the end of the "solution" without winning, and doing
so should probably cause a recalculation of the solution rather than
an assertion failure ("execute_move: Assertion `ret->solnpos <
ret->soln->len' failed.").
I am a little concerned by the way that normal solve operations end up
encoded in the save file, but the re-solvings caused by going off
course don't, but I haven't got a good answer to that.
Here's a save file that demonstrates the assertion failure:
